I'm moving drives between my PC, my server and my spares. I'm hoping to hear
a few opinions about what I'm trying to improve...

What I want, from most important to least.

- Increase the snappyness of my PC
- Increase storage space on server
- Add a Fedora Linux installation to my PC

--- My current configuration: ---
(all drives are 7200rpm, 2meg cache)

My PC: Windows XP SP1, 2.6Ghz P4 @ 3.2ghz, 512meg of DDR533 memory (PC4300)
- C:= 80gig - all files - NTFS

Server: Windows 2003, AMD XP2000+ @ 1.67Ghz, 512meg DDR memory
- C: = 40gig+40gig in RAID 0 - System, Programs, Shared documents, Windows
swap - NTFS
- D: = 120 gig - MP3, Archival, Windows swap - NTFS

USB2 external: 40gig - Backup & Transfer - FAT

Spa 60gig


--- What I'm considering: ---

My PC:
- 40gig - 39gig as System files - NTFS
- 1gig Linux swap
- 40gig - 2 gig as Windows swap and Linux accessible - FAT
- 38gig as Fedora Linux - Reiser FS (what partitions should be
real partitions? usr? home? var?)

Server:
- 40gig - System files - NTFS
- 80gig - Programs, Shared files, Documents, etc. + Windows swap files -
NTFS
- 120gig - MP3, Archival + Windows swap

USB2 external: 60gig - Backup & Transfer - FAT


So... does this sound OK? Any comments or suggestions?

Personally, I'd just like to pick up a 34gig Raptor SATA drive and use that
for my system drive. I know I'd see a BIG improvement, but money isn't there
and I've already got too many HDDs!!!
