Having you documents / data in a separate partition or on a separate drive
makes it much easier to backup what needs to be backed up.  

I have my data on a USB hard drive, this way if I have a system crash, I can
unplug the drive, and plug it into another system and keep working.

I also back this drive up to another drive.

Supposedly you have the installation disks for all your programs so there is
not need to back them up.

Thanks for all your suggestions.

Right now, my largest directories are

Documents 32GB (approx)
System Volume Information 14GB
Programs 8GB
Windows 3.5GB

If it's not advisable to have Programs in another partition and Windows and
SysVolInfo cannot be in another partition, what are the advantages of having
that 2nd partition, just for the Documents directory?

Thanks.
