Use GPT. No more 4 partitions limit and extended partition fiddling when risizing or moving stuff (that means UEFI for booting, if your computer is old you might have to spend some time in the BIOS to set things up).

You can resize live from windows (since version 7 I believe).

I'd use an NTFS partition to share files (because fat32 don't have enough prevention loss measure to my taste). NTFS partition access requires much CPU cycles though.

I don't remember why I still divide /root and /home. Must be a habit.
