I currently have an unopened package of raw sausages in the fridge (with several days left before expiration).
I also have a recipe to use all of the sausages, but due to the other ingredients in the recipe (mostly pasta) I know I can't cook it all at once (due to pot size, mostly). So I will have to make half of it at a time.
Is it better to pre-cook all the sausages and put half back in the fridge for a couple days until the second batch, or leave them raw? And should I leave them in the original (now opened) packaging (if raw; I know I shouldn't do that if cooked) or transfer them to another container (which can be sealed)?

You may want to check: Does the container of the sausages specify that the best-before or use-by date applies to the unopened package? Does it indicate that it was packed with a special gas mixture, that would escape once you open the package? Do you have access to a freezer?

Either way should be ok for a couple of days.
Either keep them raw and cook them in a couple of days, or cook them now and re-heat them in a couple of days.
Agreed ... either will work. Cooking first might be more convenient later (faster to throw something together on short notice), but there's typically better quality if you freeze it raw and cook as needed.
