I believe you are correct and that it should run better with the video editing set on another drive. This way Vista will load what it needs from it's drive, while at the same time reading and writing to the video editing drive.
Good luck to you,

OK !
I am NOT been rude (I wish to make this quite clear)
.
Do you understand or are you involved in the programming of Vista 64 ?
Why :
Because my understanding of 64 bit OS's are the usability of the CPU's.
If the OS gives a task to the CPU to read data and then (if it is correctly programmed) to use the other CPU to write data it does not matter at all where that read/write information is from.
Yes I see your point on how fast a disk is capable of read/write, but in a "multitasking" enviroment and along a 64 bit data bus what is lost on one hand is gained on another.
ALso Vist and windows has always given the opertunity to have a virtual drive allocated anywhere the user so whishes. So have the programs enhanced this operation or Not.
With respect.
