I wanted to ask a few questions before i do anything.
I have the following configuration-
Gigabyte GA-H87N-WIFI- MOTHERBOARD
PATRIOT VIPER XTREME 8GB(1) DDR3 1600MHZ MEMMORY- RAM
EVGA GEFORCE GTX 760 2GB GDDR5 1006MGHZ- GRAPHIC CARD
Intel Core i5-4670K Quad-Core Processor -3.4GHZ 6MB L3 CACHE- PROCESSOR
SAMSUNG DRW-24B1ST 24X Internal DVD Burner- DVD BURNER
SEAGATE HDD 1TB 3.5" SATA 3 64MB CACHE- HARD DRIVE
Kingston SSDNow V300 120GB- SSD
I have windows 8- 64 bit installed on my SSD, and I installed all the drivers that came with the motherboard cd. Now my SSD is 40 gigs used with just motherboard drivers, OS install, and Nvidia graphic card driver. I wanted to know-
1. If I should uninstall all the drivers from install/uninstall programs app?
1.1- if I should uninstall all the drivers, which drivers should i get from the manufacturers website. It has bunch of them in each category, and i can't figure out which ones i need (for example- Atheros LAN driver, or Intel LAN driver- etc).

1.2 Can i also update the drivers through device manager update driver functionality?
My ultimate goal is to reduce space used on my SSD (40 gigs is a bit too much given that its just a fresh install, with all drivers installed)
2. Do i also need all of the BIOS utilities as well- like bluetooth, and WLAN driver, and WLAN
