I have OSX and bootcamp installed on the same drive in my new Mac Pro. This is a 250gb drive that came with my system and I created a 32GB FAT for Bootcamp. I ordered new hard drives and I will need to reinstall OSX on two new Raptor drives that will be RAID 0. I also purchased a large 3rd drive for storage.

My question is what should I do with this 250Gb drive? I had planned on using the 250 as my XP drive. (for gaming) Should I reformat the drive to remove OSX and XP and then do a fresh install of XP? My XP install right now is only 32GB FAT.
 
Yes I would reformat the 250Gb driver and have it all for xp, do a fresh install. With some games taking up 4GB of disk space you can soon fill up 32GB
