Well, regarding sizes, if I were you I'd make this 2nd 4gb to have packages/
distfiles and releases to stay on another disk. In this case you just have 
symbolic links to packages stuff. Almost all proggies, used to mirror, fetch &
ncftp's can easilly deal with such placement. Uhm, that's what I have now here
anyhow, - we're used to use 4gb disks; I never heard users complaining on that
topic.
