Can you still use the computer? Other than the home folder (or the user folder), I think it’s fine if regular users go a week without touching their C drive until Microslop fixes it (which they will, inside like a week).

I use Windows at work, and it’s fine. I do use the home/user folder just because it’s there and it’s how everything’s set up, but there is no other drive to use instead. If I were using it at home, especially if I had a laptop, I’d want the home drive to be on an SSD I could move between machines… maybe. But, I use Macs at home.
