I have a computer with a 128gb ssd (OCZ Agility 3) and 1tb hdd (WDC). I have been using it for the last 2 years. The 128gb ssd is running W7, and the 1tb disk is 500gb w7 and 500gb linux. When using w7, I have almost everything installed in the hdd. Also, 90% of my time I use the linux partition. I rarely use w7, only to make powerpoints, some video edition and some LabView programming.
As you can see in this image, it gives me at the moment 0 bytes left:
Using WinDirStat, it gives me 74gb used, which is already a lot, but it means that around 50gb are "lost in space" not even detected by this software:
if I just go and select everything in c: and check its disk usage, it gives me 36gb used. Which makes sense, considering as said that I barely have installed W7, Office and LV in this hard disk.
I have been having this problem for quite a long time, but it never went as bad as giving me 0 bytes left.
By the way, I have the Sophos antivirus, which is always updated.
