Yes, I'm finally letting all the moths out of my wallet and gonna splurge on a new hard drive. I'll be heading off soon cos it's gonna be a STINKING HOT day, and I have to take a small bus ride :/

I have a question for you experienced multi-drive people tho.

Should I move/reinstall Windows onto my new larger/faster hard drive and ditch this 6 gig one all together, or alternatively use the little fella as the windows drive and just put all my other junk on the new one?

I'm just concerned about performance, and whether having winblows on the slower drive is going to negate the 7200 rpm's of the big one.

cheers
