Dual boot and partitioning

Hi all,

I've just built a new computer and need some advice.

I've got 2 SATA 320Gb hard drives and plan to dual boot xp and vista, installing each OS on a separate drive. How much space should i allow for each OS when partitioning the hard drives.

Also, is there a program/utility that i should use to partition the hard drives, instead of doing it when installing the OS.

Any help would be much appreciated.
