As far as the size of the Windows Partition.. its up to you what your intended needs are. If you leave your configuration as is, you can install FreeBSD on the other driver(s) and use the FreeBSD bootloader, or even install GRUB from ports. I personally use the GAG bootloader and find that it suits my needs.
