GTR: Haha, I bought it yesterday afternoon, arrived this afternoon, assembled it, and now it's my fileserver! The Antec 900's being sold to someone else at my LAN party. My server's much quieter in the Blackline now, but I need to solve the power supply noise. £50 on a new PSU is a lot to spend just to cut a few decibels...

Red on Black just matches. It goes well with a black shirt and red tie, and it goes well with the computer.

well i think i got the 100gb ide drive figured out also.i got it running the chkdsk right now and its in the repair part of it like the 250gb sata. i think that oem XP might have made a small partion and messed things up. cause on the 100gb here it shows actually 93.1gb and a 8mb portion. and on the 250gb it had the same 8mb partition also.
now once i get this worked out, and im sure it will be. can i use the seagate wizard and just clone the 250gb andput it on the 100gb.i only have about 18gb of info on the 250.or will it try and clone teh entire 250 and put it on the 100?
edit to add:
partion,portion,partition.
what the hell am i saying here???lol

I'm not sure, some programs are intelligent enough just to make what you've used, others not. This is particularly true due to file fragmentation, make sure you defrag your drive first as a precaution.
Abuzar: You're spot on, it is an awesome combination. I'm going to get some switched Lazer LEDs to pimp it out some more...
Shaff: Why would I hate that case? I was considering buying one, the only reason I didn't was because of how damned expensive it was. The Cosmos is really nice.

@CincyRob,
I've used both Maxtor's Maxblast software as well as Western Digital's install software to clone Harddrives and have only run into a couple of problems with some of Microsoft's software, Office 2003 to be exact. This program will recognize that it is not on the same disk and will ask you to reinstall the software. My advice, uninstall that program if you have it before you clone the drive. I can't remember the other program(s) but will post back once I do. I'm not sure if Office 2007 acts the same way, I haven't had to rerstore a drive of mine in a while. Post back if you run into any programs which exhibit this behavior when you get done.
