Hi All,

Just wondering if it is possible to split BIAB up so that different parts of it can be put onto different internal hard drives. The method of "splitting" parts of the program up in say Native Instruments Kontakt, for example, is quite feasible and often done if somebody wants to put the main part of the program onto their C:Drive (First drive) and the sample libraries of Kontakt onto another drive - their second drive, for example, for faster access to the programs. OR.... does BIAB have to remain as a "Complete" package in order for it to function at all?... if you know what I mean.

You see, my initial intention was to configure my internal hard drive set up as follows:

Drive 1:(C:Drive/Boot = 1TB): OS, Reaper, VST's, apps, and BIAB.

Drive 2: Sample libraries (from Kontakt) and others.

Drive 3: Music projects.

Eternal hard drive for back up.

I am a little stumped now because the BIAB Audiophile edition is almost 850 GB of data. So now it is just not feasible to install it onto my 1TB C: Drive with the OS. Sure, I could get a 2TB drive to use as my C: Drive, but this would be a waste of money as well as space.

If BIAB CAN'T be split, then I will probably have to install it to its own, separate 1TB hard drive.

Also, are we allowed to copy the files that came with the BIAB hard drive onto a separate external hard drive for safe keeping and as a backup? Is this easily done? I am fairly new to PC's and I am frightened of messing up the data on the original BIAB hard drive if I try to copy it over to another external hard drive. I have not yet done any installation of BIAB because I need to quickly order a few more internal hard drives, and I have not yet fully read the whole manual that came with BIAB, if at all this information is in the manual. Haven't seen it yet.

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can offer.
