My Win7 system is on the way. I ordered an Intel 160gb SSD and a WD Black 1TB. I picked up an OCZ Vector 2 60gb SSD on a special deal. How would you recommend I utilize these drives? OS, Program Files on separate SSD's with data on WD? Win7 is on the 160 SSD. I could clone the 160gb to the 60gb and use the 60gb for OS and the 160gb for Programs and some data. What about swap file? Thanks.

You mean an OCZ Vertex 2?

Don't clone to SSDs, just do a quick fresh install of Windows, only takes 15 minutes. You'll often have alignment issues otherwise. (Degraded performance.)

A Vertex 2 is pretty well right up there neck and neck with an Intel SSD, you're not really going to notice a difference between either of them. Toss a coin, doesn't matter much which you use for what.
