32gig SSD or a 320 HDD for an external OS boot disk.

With the SSD i'd partition it into 4 primarys. Allowing for three bootable OS and one 8 gig file transfer/whatever (aka viewable by windows). With the HDD I would basically just get a *plum* ton more file transfer space because the OS wouldn't need that much space. I could possible have more bootable OS but I don't need that many.

The external enclosure i'm getting has USB 2.0, eSATA, and a DC power port (Which can be powered with a DC to USB cable).

What's the ultimate goal, more OSes or more space?
