Repeat.  DO NOT separate your OS and apps -- keep those on one big 
happy partition.  It really is better to keep those together in OS X.  
If you must partition your main drive, just split it in two -- 80 GB 
for OS and apps TOGETHER, and 80 GB for media/scratch.

And keep the second drive as one big happy partition.  There really is 
no need to partition it if it's just going to hold your video and audio 
media.
