Hello all. So my parts are on the way so I'm doing a ton of research now to make the Hackintosh process go as smoothly as possible. My setup will be GA-Z87X-HD3, i7 4770 (not k variant) GTX 770, and for storage I'm going to be using two drives but both to be partitioned. My boot drive is going to be a 250gb Samsung 840 and my data drive is just going to be a 2TB HDD. My goal is to split both drives in half, 120/120 and 1tb/1tb.
As far as setting up the dual boot, I'd read tons of tutorials and I'm comfortable with that...or at least attempting it when the time comes. My confusion is on the data drive. Do I simply format/partition that in the exact same fashion as the boot drive (OSX Journaled and Fat32)? Or is there a better process? On the boot drive I just want the OS and my large programs. (Windows, couple games. OSX Photoshop, Logic) Thanks so much for your help, and I must say this is an amazing community and I look forward to being part of it after the build is complete.
