90gb isn't terrible, unless wanting to store files.. LL doesn't use too much for the OS itself - for example I have on mine 40gb to root using 40% but I do have 100 for /home..
I guess really - how did you partition the disk currently and what's the idea to make use of the new?
On mine I separated home and root, this isn't a necessity but I'm also playing with LVM's in LL ...
But you could or have a /data for example..
The other question is how did you format - I assume all are ext4... you maybe able to shrink windows (or delete it) the empty space becomes unallocated which could be used for a new file system/partition (say a "/data") or MAYBE you might be able to expand the current file systems.. If thinking of this, be ready to redo, should you typo or inadvertently select something...
And... even though 2 OS's the total number of primary partitions are still in play.. For MRB its 4
