I want to switch to Debian, problem is I have no spare hard drives except an external that I would only use for the OS install and nothing else. What's the best way to go about partitioning it so that I use say 10gb for the system and everything else like pictures and videos go on the other 990gb? Using Win7 atm and in the past I've always just used a completely empty hard drive when I switched operating systems

Install debian and partition it has needed in the installer.

in my head it would go something like this
\ root 50 GB EXT4
\home 50 GB EXT
\Storage Rest NTFS

Why is storage in NTFS you ask, it's because you might want to open it in windows.

Will it give me a warning before it wipes anything so I don't accidentally delete all my shit?

Wait you already have shit in the drive?
Ugh what a pain resize the drive in windows disk management.

I have 10gb left of 931

It's time to delete some stuff.
I'm 100% sure in all that 921 GB's of shit you can find atleast 20-40 GB's of shit you no longer want.
