OK, so I just ran WizTree to see what was using up most of my hard disk (I've got 320gb of 1tb remaining after only 4 months of owning this computer) and it comes up with my System Volume Information taking up 430GB!!! I don't know if it's the drivers for my Nvidia graphics card and stuff but that is an obscene amount of space to be taken up by... well I don't even know! All help appreciated!

10 / 15 / 25% Your call as I don't use System restore. And you can delete some of those old restore points if no longer needed. That'll free up much valuable disk space.

Yes I do have CCleaner, and after further analysis I found that my computer allows itself 432.58GB of space for "system protection" Any idea how much I should allow it instead?

Yep, that's the problem thanks, but what should I set the max usage to? 25%?
