Actually I also put a clone of my primary NT in the D
partition. It boots fine too, and has everything as
up-to-date as the clone is (and also provides a KOT
backup for the primary). BUT there are real caveats
to that notion, BECAUSE unless I take extreme care
my clone on D of the primary on C will load components
of WinNT from the C drive. I know this happens at
present, and I even know how to fix it, but maybe
I will and maybe I won't, because it's the kind of thing
you have to keep fixing every time you install something
new in the primary. This subject may be of interest,
which I will be happy pursue further
at another time if anyone wants to talk about it. Not
now, though.

Lets definitely talk about this some more in the near future. I'm interested in not cloning C: but making scheduled mirrors of it using something like spursuits.com

As usual i have complications. My C: holds TA program folders referencing data on the scsi drive. I think of my primary NT install on C: to also include the partition on the scsi. If I could make one big virtual drive inclusive of IDE 1 and Scsi 0, I would do it. I know thats not possible, but thats how I conceptualize these two drives as a unit.
As far as mirroring the two as a pair into D: am I looking at another nitemare as far as management goes?

To be continued...
