    We were shivering today too. It was 'only' 72F. The wife pulled out the heavy gear.

    It does get cold in Egypt, don't believe everything you see in the movies. This winter temperatures went down to zero centigrade in some areas of the country. Our summers used to be mild and our winters used to be like spring, but thats in the past.
    Now our summers are a lot hotter and winters a lot colder. High humidiy values mess everything up. Humidity makes the summer hotter and stickier and it also maks the winter cold colder, a real two edged sword

    Is it wise to split an SSD into two partitions instead of buying two SSDs?

    It depends on a few things.

    1. How big is your ssd? Size counts.
    2. What you are attempting to do or want to do?
    3. Is their a better way of doing what you are wanting to do without another partition?

    It all depends on the specifics of the situation. What purpose would the second partition or drive serve?
    You need a good reason to create a second partition. The problem is that no matter how careful you are in selecting the sizes it often happens that one turns out to be too small while the other has space to space. Even experts get this wrong.

    But if the drive was at least 250 Gb (232) it would be safe to make another smaller partition for a dual boot or some data, but I recommend just using another drive/drives.

    Not that I made another partition I simply shrunk C after install so windows doesn't write to far outside of it leaving unallocated space out of the rest,
    It's a lot easier to increase a partitions size than reducing it later.
