I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit and Win7 64 bit in dual boot. In few days I'm planing to use SSD 128GB and my current 500GB HDD to dual boot and have no idea how to set this up. There's lot of information but mostly imprecise and confusing. What I want to do is:
Window 7 completely on SSD
-C/ 60GB system
-D/ 30GB
I use Win7 rather occasionally so installing it fully on SSD shouldn't be a problem.
Ubuntu 12.04:
/boot - 500MB (on SSD)
/ - 10GB (on SSD)
swap - 1GB ( don't know where: SSD or HDD?)
/home - 26,5GB (on SSD) and 500GB (on HDD)
I have some problem with /home partition - do I need to format my HDD as /home during the system installation or there is another way, maybe symlinks... but how and when create them?
Which other folders/directories should be moved to HDD?
Second thing: what is all about aligning? Do I need this and how to make this properly?
Do I need to enable TRIM or is it enabled by default?
After searching few forum treads I'm little bit confused... basically I need guidance how to properly set up Win7 and Ubuntu to gain maximum performance and longer life of SSD drive.
Any advice will be appreciated.
