Hey all..
I'm planing on buying "Corsair Force Series F60" as my very first SSD experience.. but I need to be 'convinced' that 60GB is enough for OS, Games and apps.. So I'm using my own HDD and looking into my own habit of installing everything and never uninstall. That means I'm using 3 times more space than available on the Corsair SSD..
Only including bigger programs (and only steam games I play)
Windows 7: 10GB
Adobe : 5GB
.Windows : 1.5GB
Vegas Pro : 0.3GB
C IV : 4GB
COD4 : 6GB
RCT3 : 1.4GB
ARMA2 : 7GB
GRID : 10GB
C&C ZH : 2GB
BC2 :7GB
PCmark vantage: 0.8GB
Firefox+ :0.3GB
MW2 :10GB
CSSource :1GB
Trackmania: 1.5GB
Additional* : 5GB
*Small programs like Xfire, Teamspeak, Hamachi, Dropbox, IDM.
I may have exaggerated in some cases
Total:10+5+1.5+0.3+4+6+1.4+7+10+2+7+0.8+0.3+10+1+1 .5+5=72.8GB
Which means I am using 12.8GB too much.
Which programs/games can I remove?
Adobe can be cut down to 2GB, removing unnecessary programs from suite. Gain: 3GB
Left: 9.8GB
Vegas Pro can be removed since I almost never use it:
Gain: 0.3GB
Left: 9.5GB
PCMark Vantage is most likely a single run for me, after that, it can be uninstalled.
Gain: 0.8GB
Left: 8.7GB
GRID I no longer play, which means it can be removed.
Gain: 10GB
Left: -1.3GB
What I may do:
I probably will create a partition with my current 500GB boot drive. making it 250GB/250GB, using one for storage and the second for programs I don't find nessesary on SSD.
Programs that can be installed on HDD with satisfactory performance:
Soluto
Dropbox
Disk Burning apps
Any other? -Please recommend apps on HDD
