Dennis,

I had the same question when I replaced my 30 GB (master)/40 GB combination
with a new 200 GB drive. I was told it really did not matter.  I did a CCC
backup of the 30 to the 40, then removed the 30 GB hard drive and replaced
it with the 200 GB and strapped as the Master and then cloned the 40 to the
200. My G4-450 AGP only sees 120 GB but it has been working great and the 40
is now my backup and the 30 is in the drawer.
