I hesitate to ask such a naive question, but here goes:

I just used Disk Speed Bench X on my internal drives and discovered that my System drive, which has most of my Apps on it and is several years old, has a speed of 46,000,000 bps and that one of my internal storage drives, about 18 months old, clocks in at 75,000,000 bps.

Now even I can see that this is about 50% faster.

But would I get any real world results from switching them? Would I see an increase in rendering speed, for instance? Or a speed increase in opening Apps?

It's a question of Pain-In-The-Neck vs Benefit.

Thanks.

Harry.

Nothing measurable, no. Besides, how much time do you spend a day opening applications? Three seconds? Five? Even in the worst possible case ? just launching After Effects over and over again ? it wouldn't add up to more than a few minutes a day.

Totally not a wise optimization.

Thanks very much for the advice, Jeff.

Best wishes,
