One of the things I learned several years ago was how to set up my HD so that the system and home folder are on different partitions. It isn't terribly hard to do, and every OS installer I've used gives you the option. It's served me very well.

    I don’t have a need for that atm(like I said, my laptop has a separate drive), but will look into that in case I ever need it in the future. My problem with this personally tho is that I share my drive between Windows and Linux, and Linux doesn’t exactly play well with NTFS. Sounds really cool however for having a multi boot Linux system, with all your files shared between distros.
