Generally speaking, you will get better performance from multiple
drives.
Go to http://www.linux-howto.com/ and check out the HOWTO files.
There is one on large drives and another on multiple drives. They do a
good job of laying out the issues, particularly wrt high/low activity
determinations.
They'll help you figure out how you should lay out your system for best
performance and stability.

1. Dual OS on one hdd: Win95 or Linux on the first partition?
There MUST be a DOS partition of some type as drive C:\. You will want
to put Windows on your C: drive, which will be the first partition. One
reason for this is that in Windows not all the initial boot parameters
are in the boot sector; some of them are in the first sector of the
drive. I'm not sure what will happen if you try to have a non-DOS
partition as the first partition on the drive, and then having a DOS
partition as the second; if you are expirementing, why don't you try and
let the rest of us know.
