 I personally have a single, large drive, partitioned into several drives
 for convenience. Two important things to remember about multiple drives:
 1. It's handy to be able to take one off-line occasionally.
 2. If you keep the stuff that changes most often on one drive, backup time
    is a lot less painful. I definitely separate applications and system
    software from my documents, for that reason.

 One of your drives will probably spin up faster than the other. Why not
 make it bootable? If you do, you'll come up just a bit faster.

 That's funny. Last time I looked, SFGetfile started in the document's
 directory, which is handy.
