Operating System Partition Size?

[Suprnova04]

On a 160GB HD, should i set aside like a 10 gig partition for the OS? More, less, or not at all??

thanks.

Your uses will dictate how you partition it, but 10 GB isn't giving you very much room for installed applications or games. My one system has a 160 GB drive in it, and I give it a 40 GB C drive, and make the rest a second primary partiton, labeled D.

i went with 20.. and its fine.. but you could easily go as high as 30 or 40.. 10 is some shit though

I used 50GB, and it is going to work just fine for me.
