I keep 4 partitions on my internal...
1. My main bootable volume.
2. My music, docs, and 3rd party apps & installers.
3. A clone of my main volume.
4. An empty spare.
That second partition saves me an enormous amount of time in the event I either need to or want to reinstall OS X.
Yeah, sizing the partitions has gotten me into trouble in the past, but with the size of today's HDDs, it's a snap.
