Returning some videotapes
I have two hard disks 320gb and 500gb both SATA II. I will use the whole of the 500gb for storage, (music/media) and the 320 for multiple OS's as well as storage. My question is how should I partition it (especially as only 4 logical partitions are allowed.

I Am going to install XP, Vista, (Mystery OS) and Linux. So my thoughts were as follows:

60gb - Vista (Needs a large install)
20gb (Mystery OS)
20gb XP (Probably temporary until I am comfortable with Vista)
10gb linux
the rest NTFS or FAT 32 storage.

How should I partition that lot!? If I do the first 4 as logical what should I do the last? Does that look roughly right size wise?

Cheers guys
