I'm setting up a new file server with Debian 12, 16GB of RAM and 3 TB SSD disk for about 40 users. I found a partitioning recommendation on the Debian website
For multi-user systems or systems with lots of disk space, it's bestto put /var, /tmp, and /home each on their own partitions separatefrom the / partition.
So I'm wondering if it'll be OK:
- Boot = 1 GB
- Root = 50 GB
- Home = 2,9 TB
- VAR = 10 GB
- TMP = 2 GB
- SWAP = 4 GB
Will the proposed partitioning be OK? Is the SWAP partition OK or should it be 1:1 with the amount of RAM? Space for /home is so big besause we need it. Currently we have 2TB disk space that's 80% used. Is it ok to create swap partition on file server with ssd disk and 16GB ram memory? How about VAR partition space?
