 === Designing the Partition Layout
 
 The default partition layout for file systems includes one file system for the entire system.

+When using `UFS` it may be worth considering the use of multiple file systems with sufficient disk space or multiple disks available.
 When laying out file systems, remember that hard drives transfer data faster from the outer tracks to the inner.
 Thus, smaller and heavier-accessed file systems should be closer to the outside of the drive, while larger partitions like `/usr` should be placed toward the inner parts of the disk.
 It is a good idea to create partitions in an order similar to: `/`, swap, `/var`, and `/usr`.
