For The Windows 8 "Storage Space" Pools, am I correct that choosing the "Simple/Resiliency" type of Pool will allow me to add more disks in the future when I buy them without any issues. I know that if you choose any of the "parity" types to create the Pool, you run the risk of having problems...

Hello,
I am not a techie at all and wanted to see if someone could look at the results of my chkdsk and let me know if there are problems? I had some bad clusters and something called read failures. I'd really appreciate any help or light someone could shed on this. I have read up on this in...

I have a hp stream note book w/ 21.3 gb capacity; i tried to upgrade to 10 (I have 8.1) but I didn't have enough disk space in drive c. What it the best way to upgrade? Portable hard drive, flash drive, or another method?
I have 4.35 gb available in c.
I have 1 hard disk 3TB....
disk0 shows C 1784.55GB and F 263.45GB
disk1 shows E 746.39
How can I make F show as different disk? Currently there is nothing on F
also this adds up to : 2794.39 not 3 TB should I lose this much?
I have been running the preview as a virtual machine on my daily driver (Win 8.1). Should I delete the virtual machine and uninstall Hyper-V Manager before the upgrade? My fear is I will orphan or not be able to find the space allocated to the virtual machine and loose valuable drive space...
I was having space problems on my SSD so I checked what is taking up so much space with SpaceMonger and it turns out my Windows folder is 40GB big. How normal is this and how could I get it smaller?
I have only had this new SSD with windows for a year. :/

Hi
I'm still questioning why the driver store folder is so large.
On my computer it's 25 Gigabytes of the total 36.9 Gigabytes of my Windows install.
While I still have enough free space, I wonder why some people can have such small Windows installations.
Obviously they don't have this folder...
Hi
Here's the new version.
After doing a clean install my C:\ drive is using 55 Gigabytes of the 100 available.
I've eliminated Hiberfil.sys, removed Recovery Image, and moved the Pagefile to another drive.
The thing that really puzzles me is how much space it used for System Volume...
Hi
I've got my computer all up and running again with everything installed and for the most part working.
It's running very well, but there is a down side.
Cortana has stopped talking again.
I can clearly see that she is sending the speech signal to my Sound Blaster Card, but unlike last time...
Hi
I came to my attention today that some people seem to have much smaller Windows 10 installs then I do.
I don't have any software in my C:\ drive other then a few really small things like CCleaner etc.
I have W10 installed on a 100 Gb partition.
It uses 63 Gb of that.
Only 10 of those are...

Hi
I just finished installing 10049 and it took 4.5 hours from the point when it rebooted and started to install.
I read that some people were having problems with it taking a while, but most of the information seemed to indicate that it was caused by not having enough free disk space.
I made...
Hey folks. I've tried to find a solution to this problem elsewhere but have still found no satisfactory solution. My C drive is 500 Gb, of which 457 are available to use. The folders I have on the C drive total less than 200 Gb, but the drive shows only 40.4 Gb free. When using Tree Size it...
