A local store claims to still have 40 GB's and I thought I'd stay that size. If I have to bump up to 80 GB, I'll probably partition, although I'd rather avoid it.
Hard drives seem to have a useful life of @ 2+ years. If you have separate hard drives, it would seem easier to replace or upgrade. If a partitioned drive goes bad, you lose all of the partitions, right? Seems a higher risk.
