You might want to consider a removable hard drive tray for your Master drive. CompUSA has them. I have two bays and four hard drives so I can experiment with different distros with no risk of screwing things up. It also makes it nice for rebuilding a new system. I use FAT32 for my slave drive and keep most of my personal stuff on that instead of using my home directory. This way any OS I'm using can read/write my files. FAT32 is limited to 32MB per partition hence the name. So far I'm very happy with Mandrake 9.2 with KDE which is now available on FTP mirrors. Much more stable and bug free than RH9 with Gnome for me.
