That's what I do as well.
Windows, drivers, and system utils go in C, programs in D, and data in E. 
That way, I only back up E, everything else is re-installable, and the OS 
stuff is clearly delimited. If I loose D, I'm still up and running.

(In real life it's a little more complicated, out to J, but that's a long 
story.)
