Advise me on how to organize my 1st and 2nd drive?

[doofmaczemy]

My first hardrive backup to a new secondary hardrive was a success..YAY!
And, I checked the space taken up on the second drive and it looks like i got everything. But here's the problem..

I only have the stock 1GB of RAM that comes with my Mac, and cannot afford more ..and my computer is seriously slowing down (spinning beach balls). on that 1st hard drive. (the one i prefer to work off of)

I still have 539.6 GB available on the second drive, so that is not an issue.. okay thanks.
