Hello,

Need advice on partitioning, My first SSD Server,
I have 8GB Ram, 120GB SSD, 500GB SATAII (Using DA on CentOS)
I think to partitioning like this

120GB SSD
/boot 100MB
/ 10GB
swap 8GB
/tmp 4GB
/usr 12GB
/var rest of drive

500GB SATAII
/home rest of drive

This is good enough to run heavy mysql site?
Before upgrade to SSD this web site run on single SATA drive

Thanks in advanced
 
Since you're asking about a single-site server, and the specs can be all over the map; no such thing as averages, I'd suggest you look at usage of your current partitions or directory paths to see what percentages are being used now. Generally I use a lot of space for /home for example, but you may need almost none.
