PC Build for video editing?
I purchased a MiniDV camcorder and I'm looking to do some video editting on a PC. My PC is in a transitional stage at the moment as I have sold my MB, CPU and RAM on ebay.
I still have left over of my PC:
Samsung Spinpoint 250GB SATA II
Maxtor 80Gb 7200rpm
Antec SuperLanboy Case
Antec 550w PSU
I'm planning on getting a dual core processor with 2Gb DDR2 RAM. Would it be worth getting a raptor 74gb hard disk and how should i use it to maximise performance for video editting?
Should I partition the 74Gb Raptor in half, one half for windows and one half for working on my video files (to avoid fragmentation). I suppose I could use my 250Gb for storing my video files once I've finished editing on them.
Can any video editing experts out there give me some advice?
