I have let all kinds of files pile up on my laptop and now I get a warning all the time that my hard drive is full, then I free up some gigs, some days later the same thing happens again. So now I need to go in-depth, delete stuff I don’t use anymore, organize and then back-up the files I really want on my external hard drive. I should probably clean it up too, but I still have lots of free space on it so it can do it later. Because this takes time! And lots of it. Sometimes I just wish I could delete it all together and start over.

... I need to clean up and organize my hard drive. It’s not so much work, because most of my files are on my external hard drive, and I haven’t saved much on my pc.
But still there’s a little to be done to make my hard drive feel “fresh” again ;) (Maybe this comes along with a defrag, well let’s see)

Almost there
21 months ago
My C: drive is only 25.7GB, and about a week ago I’d reached bursting point, and had less than 1GB of space left.
Today I’ve saved a MASSIVE bunch of video and music files to CD/DVD, and now have 8.28GB of free space on the drive. I’m going to try and get 10GB free, so that’s another 1.72GB to go. Tomorrow I’ll burn a few more things to DVD, and then that should be it :)

Some weeks ago this goal seemed to me almost achieved, but now things are more complicated… my hard drive is at 63% of its capacity, and the aim is to reach the 50% of free space, burning some cds and dvds and deleting useless programs and files. I will keep you informed

My USB controller on my “movies” drive crapped out, so I went and got another one. Anyway, I’ve now got my media split between the 2 drives – all video on one, all music on the other. It’s great. I’ve just got some photos to organise, and my hard drive is officially cleaned up.

...on the weekend. Quite a good one I think (good price point)

So, at the moment all my media is being transferred over to it, then I’m reformatting my 200Gb HD into HSFS, and moving the DVDs that I have back over to it. Then I’ll have a dedicated music server on my NAS, and my movie drive as a portable disk.

...of media files all over my powerbook. I need to sort them all out. I’m going to organise them into the appropriate locations (movies, tv, music, photos etc), and then I think I’m going to cut them to DVD.
