I wanted to get an opinion on how to partition various disks. My Win 10 machine is going to Linux Mint with Win 10 ending support. I currently have three disks: SATA SSD which is the C: drive, a traditional HDD for bulk storage (D:), and a M.2 SSD for games (F:). I was looking for an opinion on how to partition the M.2 SSD. It all depends on where you install games. Should the M.2 drive be /home or something else like /opt?

In my oppinion

You can use the ssd as the root partition, then mount the hdd as your home partition.

If you meed to store large file, you can dump it to the home partition

Then mount the nvme as /data01 or something else

Then when in steam, you can add new location to tell steam where to put / searchf for your game

Ill post a screenshot later
