Main SSD:
A few partitions each containing critical system images like Windows 7 and a few Linux OSs, and then all non-critical system images live within /pool. My home directory is limited to 2GB because no work happens in my hypervisor OS.
Each system image has a home directory which usually contains ~/Projects, ~/Scripts, ~/Documents/notes, ~/Documents/maps.
For literature and reference materials, I use the BISAC[0] system for storage with a folder for each heading and subheading. I feed these into Calibre which maintains its own internal library so this doesn't matter much anyway.
Linux user programs are installed in /usr/local/bin which is mounted separately. Windows user programs are installed in a junctioned folder which points to a regular HDD to take some load off the SSD, at C:\Users\<User>\Apps and C:\Users\<User>\Utilities. %APPDATA% and all user libraries are also junctioned and pointing to an HDD.
I have several drives split into two LVM volume groups, with some logical volumes taking up multiple drives. These volumes are passed into my VMs, which see continuous filesystems for each category of data, such as video, music, games, and documents. That way these filesystems can be extended as needed without hassle.
