    You might look on the forums at http://www.robgalbriaht.com. It's a site
for professional digital photographers. I've seen this accusation made there
more than once. I can't confirm it since I have never tried a separate
partition for Photoshop. It is standard practice on the Macs we use at the
type and gripe, however, to have a separate partition just for Photoshop, on
both the OS 9 and OS 10 machines.

    They also say the Photoshop scratch disk is best on a separate drive.
