Hi Stephen
The system you're running should be more than adequate to render raw images at the fullest speed, the 2 hard drives you're using are among the fastest around, I doubt upgrading to SATA will make a noticeable difference. The only thing which springs to mind is you mention virtual memory is manually set. I'm fairly certain that Windows XP prefers to set it's own VM, it's much better at handling memory than previous windows operating systems. Try re-setting your system to allow windows to control VM. Another thing , you say your slave drive has only 20% free space and that your Nikon temp file is on this disk, you may find a dramatic speed increase if you free up a lot more space on this disk, or put your Nikon temp file on the master disk where you have more space!
