yep

10 gigs IS a little small for a OS partition IMO ... i usually go 15-20


then divide up the rest like originally stated.

i also have a partition just for the swap file so that it never gets fragmented.

mine goes something like this:

OS - 15
swap - 1
Programs - 30 (of non OS variety)
images - 10
games - 60
music - 60
video - 60

2nd HD - all download/backup stuff
