I need to run Windows xp and 7 mostly to mount a wamp (server) environment in each for web site testing in local and live and running few programs that are only on Windows.

My Mac is a new mid-2011 27inch Imac with Mountain Lion
— I will put 32gb of ram as it is possible on that model

I want to run those virtual machine from a 2x 4 tera raid 1 mirroring thunderbolt drive....

In there, if possible I want to add a clone of my system (Carbon Copy Cloner) in a separate partition, if it’s possible with that type of setup ??? I Have to investigate....

and another partition for Time machine...

The rest for the virtual Macines and some files...

How can I fix up something like that , if possible...

I just don’t want to have Windows to close from my main working system. If you know what I mean.....


Just need some input....

Thanks!
 
Reply to myself as nobody comment
This exactly what I did on a 3T Lacie Thunderbolt
1.2T partition for a complete clone with CCC
1T partition for Time Machine
800G for Windows Virtual Machine and other crap

Thanks Solved :)
