I have a question on this.  I have a drive that I use for movies and
such.  There is nothing OS related on that drive.  Would it be safe to
set this to say 1% or even 0?  Also, it is already set up with LVM and
ext4.  Can I change it even while there is data on there?  I ask because
I don't want to change it and find out my collection is gone.  o_O

Thanks.
