No, It won't be a problem to use two disks of different sizes, BUT you will
only have usable space of the size of the smaller disk. Since 20 gigs is her
smaller disk, she will only have 20 gigs of space available. The additional
40 gigs on the 60 gig drive will just be wasted space. If it was an option,
I would go ahead and throw in another 60 Gb drive.
