Default Disk Space

How much disk space is left on your computer? Are you facing a low disk space problem and ever faced one? What are some advices of freeing up disk space?

My current Win7 system has 196GB free out of the capacity of 283GB. My old computer was constantly in disk space crisis so I aimed to remove a large amount of data (>200MB) in a few clicks, like deleting cache and deleting multi-gigabyte programs. Disk usage analyzers help a lot at finding space hoggers.

I have 15.4 Gigs left of my 200 GB Hard Drive. Veeeery bad. I'm looking for stuff I simply don't use anymore, because I've had this computer for a looooong time, and my interests in a few things have changed. Maybe I could delete and anime or 2...those are memory eaters...

I'm on a 128 GB SSD on my MacBook Air, so space is in a premium, especially considering that I've partitioned it into two parts due to the Windows install and games. I have about 15.3 GB free out of 74.9 GB on the Windows partition, with my user folder and program files taking up a whole lot of space.

Two years in, maybe I'll buy an upgrade...

Sadly, the laptop I am on has a rather small hard drive. It's quite a nice laptop otherwise, but laptop IDE drives are quite expensive.

On the other hand, my desktop has about 1.5 TB free out of about 3.2 TB total.

I have 87 75 GB left out of 230. When I get a new computer I'm probably gonna get something around 400; I don't really need that much disk space.

I got a 250GB HDD and a 750GB HDD, for a total of 1TB.

Got 110GB from the 250GB one for Ubuntu, and only about 21.8GB used.

Spoiler Alert:

Just thought you might be interested in knowing that it should be "Ceci n'est pas un disque" :3
