Hello everyone ^^
Like you can see on the title, I'm just curious about something. I have one hard disk divided in three partitions. I used the option "Compress drive to save disk space" on two partitions that I use to store my games (not the one used by Windows).
Well, I just wanted to know if it could affect the performance of my games stored on the compressed partitions. I copied a file on the first partition (not compressed) from a CD and then copied that same file on the second partition (compressed) and noticed that it took a bit more time to copy on the compressed partition.
So... Will a "normal" partition deliver more performance on games that a compressed one ? Or the "compressed" status only affects file copying ?
