/ and ~ are on an SSD raid so I don't put much in there.
/ssd is a 1TB mx500 I got last year that I put video games on.
/ms is my Mechanical Storage disk.

All my bulk data is on the mechanical drive with regular BUP backups to a 3TB one and syncthing on most of it.
My laptop is setup the same way - / on ssd and /ms is the mechanical data drive.
Specific to project organization /ms/code is just about a thousand project directories of git repos and such, and I always setup cmake to build /ms/code/foo in /ms/build/foo. I maintain a lot of aur packages I keep in /ms/aur and build to /ms/Data/packages, and my package cache is /ms/Data/pacman.
I don't like mounting disks under ~ unless the user can actually do the mounting in their own session (ie with a systemd unit). Since only FUSE can do that and all my other drives are persistent I mount them at / even though my user owns the top level directory.
