separate drive or separate user ?? ?

for those of you with one main computer that gets used for both audio and personal work, do you have your DAW and audio software installed on a separate harddrive? or do you set up an 'audio' user profile.

i read its best to install the OS on a second drive, which will be dedicated to your audio software, while leaving the other drive for personal use.

ive got a mac pro.

how do you guys have it set up??

found this from an old thread: DUC: partition my drive or create a separate user for pro tools?

I would probably do a completely different partition with a completely different install of windows for my personal use. But that is just me. YMMV
