FWIW, I keep a separate multi-media partition for music/images/video.  
That keeps /home, with the user configuration I start X/kde with, small 
enough to put on the more expensive but *MUCH* faster pair of ssds in 
btrfs raid1 mode, along with the system partition, also on the ssds in 
btrfs raid1 mode.  That makes booting and starting X/kde *MUCH* faster 
than it'd be on spinning rust.

The big media partition, however, remains reiserfs, on far less expensive 
if also far slower spinning rust.  Because btrfs is still experimental, I 
keep tested bootable backups of / and /home in reiserfs on spinning rust, 
as well.
