two internal ssd's: how to use one just for startup?

I did a ssd upgrade on my iMac 27 late 2012. now I have a clean iMac with two internal drives: one apple blade ssd (around 120GB) and an internal big one (Samsung evo 870 1TB) . but how can I get a clean setup? I wanted to use the small one JUST for booting up (nothing else; in the hope for the fast possible startup) and the big one for daily use and storage… is that possible?

HiYa,

There is very little point to booting from the 120GB and using the 1TB for storage - both drives will be very similar speeds (PCIe SATA drive vs SATA drive - you could test with BlackMagic Disk speed test but both will give around 500 MB/sec).

You are best off installing the OS onto the 1Tb and using the 120GB for things like downloads / swap files etc.. Easier all round.

Hope this helps.

Agreed! The mSATA blade drive is not really large enough as a boot drive as the OS needs space for caching and virtual RAM.

I do like dual drive systems as even though the SATA throughput could be the same having OS/App and Data I/O all through one channel is not as effective as spitting it OS/Appp and then data on the other.

But you need at least a 256GB drive.

But your work flow is what is key here. writing, web surfing and limited coding, photo editing doesn't really push your system. heavy Photo, Video game play would.
