Jim,
I never thought about mapping a folder into a drive letter. That's very smart idea. Thank you very much.
When you are saying "erratic performance", any specific symptoms of that? I have had 2 notebook (one before and one I am using now) that were partitioned into three partitions. Both computers used NTFS. But I have not seen performance issues. How would they manifest?
