At this time I use one (1) external HDD to run PortableApps. I need to expand the disk space. I have two (2) more external HDD on which I would like to store Media such as Pictures and Music.
Is it possible to use three (3) separate external disk drives, where one contains the primary "PortableApps" menu, and the other two (2) drives contain the Documents and Media?
In other words, can I specify the directory or drive which the PortableApps menu uses as the Documents, Music, Pictures, and Videos directories?
Thanks in advance,

Perhaps a RAID 0 array of disks would work. I found a few articles about RAID 0 with USB devices. However, it looks like none of the suggested solutions work with Windows O/S. Additionally, the disk are of unequal size (40GB, 20GB, and 20GB).

putting "knowledge" in "Teknowledgey".
IMO, a RAID 0 would be totally nonsense and also (likely) wouldn'd work with external media.
What might be of use is

or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_link
maybe with a script to generate the links with the current drive letters in case they can change
"Der Klügere gibt nach, deshalb regieren Dumme die Welt."
In the menu, the location of the folders on the right side (Documents, Music, Pictures, Video) are hardcoded into the exe.
