I have 2x60gb 7200rpm drives in a raid 0 in 1 array (this drive has a 4gb
fat32 partition), it also the drive that stores my os, winxp pro.

I am using the pc for video editing work.

I have new 2x120gb 7200rpm drives, which i want to set up in another array.

I also have 1x40gb drive too.

What i want to do is have my operating system on the drive that wont be
doing my editing work, the 40gb drive.

I have yet to add the 2 new drives.

I have the raid zero array set up on the primary ide master and slave and i
am left with the secondary ide master/slave.

Please can someone offer me some advice on how best to use the drives for
both performance and security.
Can I copy the contents of my old array onto the new one...

Thanks a lot

Robert
