> 1) How is your drive/system laid out regarding your paritions?
   I. An EFI partition which is essential to boot
  II. A Btrfs partition to place / and /home
 III. A seperate disk for multimedia files.
> 2) Do you have multiple drives (SSD/Sata)?
Yes, a NVME ssd for system and home, I want them to be fast when doing
compiling. And a hard drive which is big enough (4 TB) single disk. The
big hard device is used to contain anime/games/music.
> 3) Is OS on one drive, apps/data on the other?
OS and apps and user data on the NVME, media files on hard disk.
> 4) Do you switch between OS(es)?
I don't switch between OSes, I use a seperate laptop to do things that
must be done on Windows, e.g. using meeting software that is Windows
only, or strange docx file that will mess up libreoffice.
> 5) What's your "backup" process/strategy?
A diy NAS, running Fedora Server, with 16 TB of capacity, I dump almost
everything there. But for important files, I will encrypt them and
upload to cloud. And for codes, I will commit them to GitHub.
> 6) What's your "update" strategy(ies)?
If you mean updating system?
Thanks to btrfs, I update by desktop literally whenever I can, if
anything goes wrong, I can rollback. For my nas, I may update within
one week of every fedora release.

Or updating storage?
Buy new disk, plug in, add them to btrfs pool, done. I might be having
OCD that prevents me from deleting things...

With compress of btrfs, it should be just fine to run your system on
256GB SSD, if you don't compile giant things. 

About the harddisk, bigger doesn't mean better, just fits your storage
need is enough.

(Don't use SMR hard disk, check that before purchasing, they are slow
and may broke your data.)
