Right then, I've decided that the best way to go will be a complete re-install of the OS onto one of the new drives.

After that the drives will be partitioned as follows:

Disk 1:

C: - System (10Gb) <Server Only>
R: - Personal Files (20Gb) <Shared>
S: - Other Files (30Gb) <Shared>
T: - Applications (10Gb) <Server Only>
U: - Web (10Gb) <Apache>

Disk 2:

V: - Laptop Backup (30Gb) <Shared>
W: - Server Backup _ System (10Gb) <Server Only>
X: - Server Backup _ Applications (10Gb) <Server Only>
Y: - Server Backup _ Web (10Gb) <Server Only>
Z: - Files Backup (20Gb)

There's every chance that I've over thought this but, hell, I've got a new toy and I'm going to play

Once it's all installed and running I'll take a look at Acronis and Norton Ghost and see which seems to suit me best.

Thanks to everybody who's had an input into this thread, I'll let you know how I get on.
