My setup is a 32gb SSD which holds my OS and some misc programs I use frequently. I have a 1TB partitioned into a 400gb for Media (music/videos) 300gb for Games and currently have ~220gb unallocated for future necessary use. I also have a 640gb notebook drive that I have all of my installer files scripts and programs that do not fit onto my 32gb SSD. Having a drive dedicated to your OS prevents the problem of losing games or other programs on crash. I image my SSD every week to have a current back up. I also don't have to reinstall your games each time you reimage your OS. Hope this helps or gives you an idea of another route to take. -Byteme8bit
