Upgrading help

Hi

I just purchased an 128 gig ssd drive to install win 7 home premium 64 bit on it.
However what should i do with my previous hard drives?
WD raptor 74 gigs and 2 seagates barracudas 500 Gigs each
Given the fact that my previous OS was Xp Pro 32 bit.
Do i have to reformat them or just erase what´s in them?
Andy suggestion is welcomed.
Thanks in advance.

    Well, the 74Gb is probably not much use to you. I'd bin it.

    The Seagates OTOH should be quite useful.

    Put Windows and your programs on the SSD.

    Use one of the Seagates for all your Cakewalk Projects, use the other for all your sample libraries.

    I'd reformat both provided you've got everything on them that you might want backed up somewhere.
