My partition layout is mostly down to habit I picked up as a sysadmin. Using LVM and separate partitions so the system can be manipulated. My PC has /home on a RAID5 array.

Code:
NAME         MAJ:MIN RM   SIZE RO TYPE  MOUNTPOINT
sda            8:0    0 223.6G  0 disk
├─sda1         8:1    0   487M  0 part  /efi
└─sda2         8:2    0 223.1G  0 part
  ├─fka-swap 254:0    0    16G  0 lvm   [SWAP]
  ├─fka-root 254:1    0    20G  0 lvm   /
  ├─fka-var  254:2    0    10G  0 lvm   /var
  ├─fka-opt  254:3    0    10G  0 lvm   /opt
  └─fka-tmp  254:4    0     5G  0 lvm   /tmp
sdb            8:16   0   1.4T  0 disk
└─sdb1         8:17   0   1.4T  0 part
  └─md127      9:127  0   2.7T  0 raid5 /home
sdc            8:32   0   1.4T  0 disk
└─sdc1         8:33   0   1.4T  0 part
  └─md127      9:127  0   2.7T  0 raid5 /home
sdd            8:48   0   1.4T  0 disk
└─sdd1         8:49   0   1.4T  0 part
  └─md127      9:127  0   2.7T  0 raid5 /home

My laptop isn't as complicated, just a single / partition. If I every rebuild my PC I will probably do the same... although old habits and all that.
