Default Setting up 002 for the first time

First, please allow me to thank all of you for your kind and generous assistance. It is with your help and advice that I finally had a custom computer built to run PTLE with my DIGI 002.

Now, I am setting up for the first time and would like to know the following: (don't laugh)
Also, I have 3 80G WD 7200 Deluxe HD's all on their seperate cable and channel of the Promise controller. The Promise Controller is rated for up to 3 terabytes. No RAID on this bad boy.

1. Should I install PTLE and all the additional software plugins on the same drive that I will be storing and editing PTLE sessions on? Or, should I install all the software on my main "C" or Windows OS drive and use the two other drives just for storage?

2. What should I set my Virtual Memory file size to? I hear this can be a pain.
(I have done an msconfig to remove everything not needed)
3. How much will it help to rid my system of any ethernet adapters?

Here is my system now:
TTGI Black Aluminum case.
Sparkle 400 12V ATX Power Supply.
Asus A7N8X nForce2 DDR400 AGP/LAN/USB2.0 -Mainboard.
2 Kouwell IOFLEX -FW4PCI to FIREWIRE Cards on independant buses.
AMD Athalon XP2700 (2.167GB) 333FSB (retail).
PowerColor Radeon 9000 Gold 128MB.
1024 MB of PC2700 333MHZ DDR RAM.
Lite on 52x/24x/52x/ CD-RW.
3, 80GB Western Digital Special Edition 8MB -Cache 7200 RPM ATA/IDE Hard Drives.
Teac 1.44 floppy.
Lite on 16X DVD-ROM LTD-w/SW.
Promise Ultra 133 TX2 ATA-133 IDE Controller.

So, your thoughts please. I am mainly concerned about where to install the software and the Virtual Memory File Size limit. However, any tips and advice you can offer will be rewarded with a great big smile!

Thanks,
