Linux multi-user system: Each user's home partition on its own Hard Drive

Linux multi-user system: Each user's home partition on its own Hard Drive

I've got a pogoplug running arch that I'm using for a NAS with rsync backing up my data over SSH, and as of right now, I'm the only one using it, but I'd like to add my roommate as well, who has her own external harddrive to store her backed-up data on. Would it be strange to mount /home/my-user/ on the harddrive I've currently got my data backing up to, and /home/roommate-user/ on her harddrive? Or is there a more sensible way to do it? What's the best practice here?
Thanks for reading! I appreciate any help
