Is this linux configuration adequate on SSD+HDD?

The situation is as follows - there is a PC with 8 gigs of RAM, 120GB SSD and 1TB Hdd. I plan to put a Linux distribution on it, specifically Opensuse Leap 42.2. But I'm not quite sure how best to proceed due to the presence of a solid state drive. The simplest option, of course, would be \ on ssd and \ home on hdd, but the toad presses the root to give 120 GB. After much thought, the following idea came up
on the SSD:
\boot\uefi (500 mb, fat32)
\ (50gb, btfs -o ssd)
\home (everything else, not sure about the file system, xfs? ext4?)
to hdd
swap(8 gb)
\var\log (about 7 gigs, btfs)
rest in xfs with folders soft-clicked instead of
\tmp storage folders in tmpfs in ram, with volume a bit unsure.
Is this breakdown appropriate? What is the best file system to use for /home? And does it make sense to store tmp in memory, or is it better to just put it on the hdd and clear it when you turn it on?

In fact, everything is simple - the
SSD is fast, but small - you need to place on it information to which quick access is critical, and the information that is actively read, written.
The HDD is slow and large - you need to place information on it that is not critical for quick access, or one that is rarely read, written
In general, put archives, collections of family photos on the HDD, a folder in which all the Santa Barbara series are stored, etc. . And the rest, if possible, on the SSD.
Ideally, everything is on the SSD, with the exception of subdirectories in / home that store heavy and rarely changed data.
If everything does not fit, then
be sure to SSD \ temp, \ var, swap
The rest will fit.
