I have a 2nd partition of about 10GB for documents, and the rest for downloads, Photos. This is on my office machine with 2 hard drives, the 2nd is unpartitioned backup drive. On my other machine I have 3 hdd, one for OS and programs that is partitioned and use the 2nd partition for documents and downloads. The 2nd drive is for music and photos and the 3rd drive for videos. There is probably no rational reason to have a smaller partition for documents and downloads. The key to partitioning is to do it in a way that makes sense for you, e.g., makes it easy to find things and your comfortable with. Personally, I think it is always a good idea to have a 2nd hdd to storage be it internal or external, especially for things that are not replaceable like photos, video you haven't burned, or documents or downloads, especially programs you've paid for.
