You also want to move the IBM to IDE1 to avoid 1/2 speed throttle situations. Don't forget to update /dev/fstab and the /dev/cdrom and/or /dev/cdr links before you reboot.
Current ------- IDE0/M /dev/hda 30GB IDE0/S /dev/hdb 40GB IDE1/M /dev/hdc CD-RW
Better disk I/O --------------- IDE0/M /dev/hda 30GB IDE1/M /dev/hdc 40GB IDE1/S /dev/hdd CD-RW
or
IDE0/M /dev/hda 30GB IDE0/S /dev/hdd CD-RW IDE1/M /dev/hdc 40GB
