At the moment, NVIDIA has the lead over AMD in terms of performance. We have also found that NVIDIA cards tend to be slightly more reliable (both from a hardware and driver standpoint), which is why we typically use NVIDIA over AMD unless there is a clear benefit to using an AMD card.
There are three main types of drives you might use for a Photoshop workstation: SSD, NVMe, and the traditional platter drive. Of these three, traditional platter drives are the slowest but are extremely affordable and available in much larger capacities than SSD or NVMe drives. Due to this, they make excellent long-term storage drives, but depending on the size and resolution of your assets, they may not ideal to work directly off of.
SATA SSDs are several times faster than a platter drive but are also more expensive. These drives are excellent for a wide range of tasks such as holding your OS and applications and storing projects you are actively working on.
NVMe drives come in two flavors (M.2 and U.2), but either one will be significantly faster than even an SSD drive. They can be more expensive than a SATA SSD, but in return can be up to twelve times faster! In most cases, you will not see much of a performance increase with an NVMe drive since a modern standard SSD is already fast enough that it is rarely a performance bottleneck, but as the cost of these drives continue to fall, they can be used as an OS and application drive to make your system boot and launch programs a bit faster.
Technically, you could keep your projects on an external drive and work directly from that drive. However, this is one of the most common causes of performance and stability issues we hear about from our customers. We highly recommend copying all your files to a local drive before working on them. External drives are terrific for backup and archiving, but not ideal to work off of.
We can certainly configure a more workstation with a larger drive capacity if that is what you need, though in many cases external storage may be a better option. Please contact our consultants to discuss your specific needs and the various options we have to meet them.
If your scratch disks on Photoshop are full, you should clear out items that use excess disk space, such as your Photoshop cache and temporary files. You can also increase your RAM storage or upgrade to a larger hard drive to create more space for your scratch drive.
A scratch disk is the temporary memory your hard drive uses to store files for programs like Photoshop. When these programs are running, they need to access memory, or scratch space. By storing temporary files and backups, scratch disks help programs quickly access the files they need.
Photoshop CC installed on my system drive partition which is now very full. How do I move it to another drive partition? Do I need to de-activate it, uninstall it, and re-install it? I don't remember seeing an option to select the installation location."
In most cases, Adobe Photoshop downloaded by users will be saved to the system drive (C drive), because the default storage path of Windows is C drive. In order to avoid Windows running slow when the C drive is full, many people choose to move Adobe programs to another drive.
However, moving programs cannot copy-paste like moving text files. If you do not take reasonable measures, the moved Photoshop may not run successfully. Therefore, this post aims to tell you how to move Photoshop to another drive without reinstalling it.
Reinstalling Photoshop will make you lose data, so how to move Adobe Photoshop to another drive without reinstalling it? You can try AOMEI Partition Assistant Professional. This is a powerful application transfer utility compatible with Windows 11, 10, 8, 7, XP, and Vista. Its App Mover feature can move Photoshop/Photoshop CC from one drive to another and boot successfully. Also, If you accidentally move a program you don't want to change, you can restore it by clicking Manage/Restore Apps at the bottom of the interface.
From what has been discussed, this tutorial not only gives you two methods on how to move Photoshop to another drive, but also shows how to extend the C drive in Further reading. In my opinion, AOMEI Partition Assistant is a tool you can rely on as it has many more advanced features waiting for you to unlock!
3. Remove Unnecessary Files: If your scratch drive is full, you must delete some of the files that are occupying space. Target huge files, such as films, photos, application installers, etc., that consume a lot of space but that you likely no longer need.
If you don't have another drive or don't want to buy one, then it's time to do some spring cleaning. Look at the drive contents to see if you can delete anything you don't need to reclaim some disk space. Is there storage space that can be cleared? Usually, there is, so go ahead and delete your old files and free up some space.
As mentioned, the scratch disk problem happens because of 2 simple reasons: lack of RAM and lack of free storage space. Both can be addressed if you buy a Thunderbolt SSD (solid-state drive) to use as your Photoshop scratch disk. By today's standards, 256 GBs should be enough.
Scratch disk in Photoshop is your hard drive space used by the app as virtual memory when there is not enough RAM to complete a task. Photoshop allows you to assign several scratch disks. That way, it has more space for storing temporary files at its disposal.
It's important to note that when you set up Photoshop, you will have the option to assign the scratch disk to the drive of your choice. We highly recommend not using your system drive unless you have no other alternatives.
Photoshop's temporary files are the most significant reason behind the "scratch disks are full" error. They usually mass up in your drive without leaving single evidence of their presence. If you have a habit of force-quitting Photoshop, you may have a lot of temporary files stored in your system. As Photoshop can't fully close all projects after you quit it so rapidly, it keeps such files on your computer.
If your computer has a fast solid-state disk drive (SSD), use the SSD as the scratch disk. Don't use the same hard disk drive (HDD) where the operating system is installed or where the files you edit are stored. Also, don't use a network or removable drive.

(Complain to someone else if it doesn't) RE: help! temp files are taking up all my free space!! shoobi (TechnicalUser)(OP)19 Sep 05 15:41hi jimoblak - thanks for ur help..
i am using photoshop 7.
i just changed the scratch disk and now its saving the temp files on c instead of d.. just a temporary solution. although it keeps telling me that the scratch disk shouldn't be on my primary volume..
the main problem isnt just the fact that its making these temp files but that they're are so huge! i just opened a 83 MB file and it immediately created a 1.5 GB temp file!! (this time on c).. this seems wrong - also i'm surprised i had never noticed this before..this is really bad because i just have nowhere to save my files once the program is running (catch 22!!)
history option? do you mean history states? well if you do then its at 20...
i dont know if this is relevant but in my cache settings - its at 4
and the box isn't checked for 'use cache for histograms'.
In short is there anything I can do to change this and actually use photoshop and the memory i have left on my puter?
I'm trying to reach a deadline and cant work!!
thanks so much for the help -

RE: help! temp files are taking up all my free space!! jimoblak (Instructor)19 Sep 05 16:04IT sounds like you have everything checked that you should. How about the version of the software? Are you up to 7.0.1? I don't recall a drive space issue in the 7.0 release but it would not hurt to update to 7.0.1. - - I hope this helps - -
(Complain to someone else if it doesn't) RE: help! temp files are taking up all my free space!! shoobi (TechnicalUser)(OP)21 Sep 05 01:46I cant update at the moment..
but I didnt get it - Are you saying that this is normal?
or is something really wrong with the way this is working?
Do you also have these collosal files being stored on your drives when you use photoshop?
thanx

RE: help! temp files are taking up all my free space!! mscallisto (TechnicalUser)23 Sep 05 12:42I just opened up pshop 7.1.1 and it uses 38Mb alone
Next I opwned a 1 Mbyte bitmap and my disk space was reduced by 4 Mbytes
are your ratios about the same? RE: help! temp files are taking up all my free space!! mscallisto (TechnicalUser)23 Sep 05 14:12take a look at:
and see TopTenTips #5 RE: help! temp files are taking up all my free space!! anesone (TechnicalUser)28 Sep 05 15:49First, close any "background" programs and work with only Photoshop open. Set your (Edit-Preferences) memory usage as high as you can.
Each time you get done with a file, close Photoshop and restart. This will clear the temp files. Go to your Photoshop directory and make sure they're gone. If not, highlight and delete.
Make sure you have as much RAM as you can. Photoshop 7 handles up to 2 Gig, I believe. Or buy another external hard drive (you can find them on sale pretty cheaply) and designate it for your scratch drive. googletag.cmd.push(function() googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1406030581151-2'); ); Red Flag This PostPlease let us know here why this post is inappropriate.

If you need more scratch space, one of the easiest and quickest ways to free up space is to move the scratch disks to another drive. By default your scratch disks will be stored on your system drive, but you can change that by going to Edit > Preferences > Scratch Disks and assigning a new drive, or additional drives. You can assign up to 4 hard drives or SSD drives to be used as scratch space.
