Each to their own, but I would not have so much space devoted to one task. Much more convenient to measure out your hard drive into practicable spare partitions, with seperate mount points.Then you can use each spare partition for what ever task you like.



OTOH, having a rather large /home partition means having a lot of room to play around with, and in "familiar" territory, if you catch my meaning. Downloads (movies, music, etc.), source installs, and the like can all be accessed/done from your home dir, rather than moving around between partitions for each purpose. There's a lot more to /home than just config files.

But it's just as easy to move around between mounted partitions, honestly.
