Any more ways to recover valuable disk space on my 32 GB mSATA ssd running Win 7?
http://www.hanselman.com/blog/GuideToFr ... dows7.aspx
I have a laptop with a 32 GB mSATA ssd used as the boot up drive and a 320 GB hdd.
I already removed the backup files for Windows 7 SP1 and have also migrated the MSOCACHE folder (while changing the registry information to match my hdd drive letter), Firefox and Chrome Cache folders onto the hdd and had moved my download folders to the hdd.
I had hibernate and system restore disabled when first prepping the sdd. Just downloaded WinDirStat last night and this was how I found out that the MSOCACHE folder is occupying a good junk ~ 600MB.
So far, the ssd is not slowing down but I only have 3.5GB of 29.7GB free. I know it's not optimal but buying another one doesn't make sense at the moment.
I checked amazon.com for mSATA ssd prices and they are mostly still hovering around $1/GB. Because I don't intend to install a lot more enormous apps in the future (and I don't game), I don't mind waiting until prices drop further before considering an upgrade. So far I have installed almost all application on the ssd though.
The one thing I know I may have not cleaned up are the cache/backup files for the Office 2010 service pack update but I have had no luck finding the right way of moving them.
Thank you.
