You can easily mess your system up by filling the file system, depending on the use case scenario it might be a good idea to have media data on a separate partition or drive. Many file systems offer a reservoir of blocks for the root user to avoid a totally unusable system, but most services will die. On machines that have to run reliably (servers, recording, playback) I usually have a dedicated system partition. > Will performance be better if you have a special partition for audio? Again it depends on your use case. For big recordings I create new filesystems for the media data everytime.
