I just got a new PC that was custom built for me. No software other than windows 7 was installed
RAM: 16 gb
SSD 120 GB (boot drive)
1 TB RAID Mirror drives
I only have 71.5 gbs of space left on my SSD. What is taking up the space? I have not configured restore points? Is this swap space and space needed for hybernate? If so, how do reduce this? I will probably never use all of my 16 GB of RAM. I only got that much because it was $40 for 8 GBs. What else can I clean up?
How would I change the hybernate and swap space and what should I set it to? I am not sure I even need hybernate if it is going to use so much space.
Also, I have not set up the system restore points yet. Can I configure this to go to my 1 TB RAID array instead of the SSD?
Looks like windows 7 has soft links which they call junctions. Could I mvoe some of this stuff to my raided hard drive and use soft links? I have used soft links in unix many times before. I don't know if these are exactly the same thing. f there is a chance I will break something, its not the end of the world. i just got it so i could reinstall. but any pitfalls would be nice.
