Usually 100-150 systemic, the rest is optional. 2x500 nothing bad will happen, everything will work

Under the seven, I allocated 100 GB for the system. It can be 150 so that everything fits in there. The rest was divided into data.
It is useful if you can normally organize your workspace so that documents and important files are not located anywhere, but on a separate disk. Then, when reinstalling the system, you can safely format the system disk without fear of losing anything.

maximum? Yes, even a terabyte) depends on the adequacy of the user in general. You can litter the desktop with a terabyte, for example. or download to a standard folder in terabyte documents. and you can fit the system on 20 gigs and even install programs on another partition of the disk

What's the point of partitioning the disk now?
I would just leave C alone, it's easier to work with.
True, with an SSD, I have two of them, but each has one visible partition.
