I want to try to test fresh Windows and Studio. As experience with Windows 7 (as opposed to XP and earlier) has shown, installing updates and applications (especially bold ones like Visual Studio) noticeably bloats system directories too. What size partition to allocate for this case (pure system and applications, all user files - on a separate partition)?

At least 60 GB, but 100 is better, it will be just right. If there is not enough, the partition can be enlarged by Acronis at any time without data loss.
