If I have two drives, both with Windows, so that I can boot from either (via
CMOS
settings) will Windows be able to use both drives? I haven't tried this.

For far less than $300 (read: free) I got an old 486, without monitor, which
runs Samba and NFS (SuSE Linux), so its files are usable by any pc on my
home.net.
Any file I think I might want Windows to be able to use, I store there. This
works fine,
and gives me some protection against losing stuff whenWindows crashes.

Irv
