    Windows - SSD Problem

    Right I'll keep it short and sweet :_D

    I have 2 SSD's (60GB for Windows and 120GB for games/software)
    And a 1TB for general software and stuff ;D

    I asked someone on Hexus "would 60GB ssd be enough windows, and they said yes". Anyways after a 3/4 months, I've got 9.6GB left :s All I've been installing is the Windows update(s) and that's it.

    Is that even possible? Shall I defrag my ssd? Is there any other way to see what I've installed on it so I can make some room?

    Thanks

    treesize free

    and to clear up some space use symbolic links to shift less used stuff off the ssd


    dont think about looking into clearing up winsxs folder, it has to stay.

    Games? Check the windows\installer directory for massive .msi files.

    Move the %temp% folder to your HDD.

    Then TreeSize it to find more stuff.
