I am running a 74gb raptor with a WD 120gb as a storage drive. I ordered and received my new WD 640gb last Friday(5/30). I was just wondering if I should keep my OS loaded on my raptor and use the WD 640gb as storage, or just partition the WD 640gb and sell the raptor?
 
Keep the Raptor for the OS, sell the 120 unless it would make a useful backup to keep in the closet.
 
By backup do you mean storage, or backup? That's a mighty nice drive to use as a backup.
 
I think the new drive would actually be around the same speed if not a little faster than the Raptor, so you wouldn't lose any speed if you went the route of partitioning. It's really down to whether you want the extra storage from keeping the Raptor as an OS drive or the extra cash you'd get from selling it.
