Dual-boot on Intel 520 240 GB/Toolbox on XP?

idata — Mon, 02 Jul 2012 09:23:11 GMT

Hi,

I recently installed a 240 GB Intel 520 SSD in my system, replacing a HDD, and cloning its contents to the SSD.

The data migration and everything else went brilliant, and I am very satisfied with the results. I have one question, however.

The layout of the SSD is as follows: Partition C: Windows 7, 150 GB; partition F: Data, 60 GB; and partition G, Windows XP, 10 GB. I dual-boot between the two OSs, so these partitions are not visible to each other. (The whole computer also contains 2x1 TB HDDs, also partitioned.)

My question is, should I install the SSD Toolbox on the XP partition as well? I have already installed it on the C and F partitions, but I am not sure what to do about the XP one. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

All the best from Stockholm, Sweden,

Magnus

Yes, you need to install the Toolbox on your XP partition to take advantage of it.
