Yet again, personal preference right here ^ Your layout works just fine as well.
This is not a bad layout at all, but I do have a few problems with it.
First of all wouldn't the swap partition burn a hole on my ssd?
Also I need all the storage space I can have so RAID 1 isn't really an option, and wouldn't that make the faster hdd bottlenecked by the slower one?
If you use a shitload of your swap constantly, then indeed moving it to your HDD might be a better idea. And yeah, it would bottleneck the faster HDD. But is that slower HDD that slow then?
Why do i keep coming back? No idea.
