Hi,
Yesterday I bought an SSD (250gb) and its showing that its already about 90gb full. I have checked all the folders on the hard drive and I can only account for about 60gb of stuff or so (I cloned my last HDD onto it and I have just done a formatted upgrade to windows 10 so there's not all that much on there besides some steam games I downloaded again and some other programs).
What's taking up that other 30gb? I read that it could be system restore points (or page files) -- if so, is it possible for me to keep my system restore points and page files on my other old HDD (1tb) which I have also connected (but doesn't have the OS on it -- right now it just is media storage)? Will this have any negative ramifications?
Also: it's not windows.old because I transferred that off and deleted it.
Thanks for your time
Update: I have solved my own problem, no need to answer me, sorry for wasting your time.
