Thanks Dave.

Instead of partitioning my 2 TB drives I have decided to return my 2 TB drives for (2) 1 TB drives. I will back up my OS and Applications onto a 300 GB drive and use the 1 TB Drives for storage only. These drives will only hold data files such as: Graphics, Audio, Video. Images etc.

http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2355

When Should Journaling Be Used? - Journaling is best suited for servers requiring high availability, servers containing volumes with many files, and servers containing data that is backed up at infrequent intervals (nightly, for example). If a volume contains read-only data that is not mission-critical, it may not be necessary to turn on journaling if performance is more important than safety. If your server contains high-bandwidth usage data files, such as large video, graphics, or audio files, you may want to weigh the benefits of using journaling against the performance needed to access your data. In most cases, the impact of journaling upon data access performance are unnoticeable to users, but its implementation may not be practical for servers where data access demands outweigh its benefits. - Apple

After reading this article I am not sure which is better. "Journaled" or "Not Journaled". They talk about performance being more important than safety. Does this mean if I don't use "journaled" that my data is at risk of being lost? I want the drive to be used for storage so which is best IYO? "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" or "Mac OS Extended"

Thanks
