Macbook Pro Retina as a PC Question
First of all, I'm 100% buying a Macbook Pro Retina very soon. My job is in video production so I'm primarily going to be using it for that. However, I also enjoy PC gaming every now and then so I'm hoping to set up Bootcamp and Windows 7 on the machine as well. However, I don't want to run bootcamp on the main internal hard drive... so, my question is, could I buy a thunderbolt enabled external hard drive and use it as a boot drive for windows? If so, would thunderbolt be fast enough for me to play PC games on an external hard drive like that? I suppose I COULD potentially just partition off a part of the main internal SSD, but I'd rather not.
What do y'all think? Is it possible? Would it be effective, or would I lose a ton of speed by using bootcamp on an external hard drive like that?
Windows 7, Also have a Macbook running OSX
