New PC Partitioning Scheme
Hello!
For a variety of reasons, I'm switching to using a desktop PC for my primary computer away from my 3-year-old MacBook Pro.
Here is my setup plan and I'd like to confirm that this makes sense:
Boot Drive:
128GB ADATA SP900 SSD
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
Non-Game Apps and Battlefield 4
GRUB boot loader
Data Drive:
2TB WD Caviar Black
Partitions:
1.5TB NTFS - Windows User folder and Most games
500GB - XFAT - R/W by Mac, Linux and Windows thanks to FUSE
Linux Disk:
500GB Seagate Momentus XT (4GB Cache)
16GB OS Boot Partition (Debian 7.1 or Ubuntu 13.04)
24GB Swap (I have 16GB Physical RAM, this should cover hibernate RAM copy and a plenty extra)
~460GB /home and everything else
I also have 3 external 2TB drives, one will be for backup, one for Music and one for Video. They are currently OS X Ext Journaled but I'm probably going to make them all XFAT for maximum compatibility across OS's.
Any thoughts as to where this might be better optimized?
