    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 :)
