I set up systems with the OS on drive 0 and the application and data on drive 1.
Even with RAID, I set up logical drive 0 with the first two spindles, and then use the rest for data.
The biggest advantage is ease of creating a standby machine.
Performance will depend on how well you can balance the IO between disks.
