I felt like they did it one more time, but I guess they only ever discussed doing it and never actually did. Given that it was a series opening event and how well it was used in The Best Of Both Worlds im surprised it wasn’t used again until Generations.
I just remembered the discussion without separation was in Disaster, when Troi was the senior officer on the bridge and a warp core breach was developing. Ro wanted her to separate the ship to save as many people as possible, but Troi wanted to wait in the hopes someone would get to engineering and fix the problem.

They did it three times in TNG. Once during Farpoint, once during The Arsenal of Freedom, and once during The Best of Both Worlds.
