Subject: [H] HELP - Space for system restore?
Under WindowsXP --- System restore has set aside so much space on each
drive
for system restore.
I have 6 real/virtual drives with about 750 gb of space. So throughout the
drives @10% - 75gb is reserved which seems absolutely retarded.
I am not sure what XP wants to restore, whether it be the 1- the SP
INSTALLATION or 2 - a logical DISK drive.
If it is the Installation, then it seems that the boot drive does not have
to hold any restore material - that way it remains as lean and mean as
possible and I can use some of the other drives for that purposes.
If it is just xp installation then it seems as though reserving 10 - 15 gb
is more than enough.
Thanks
Bob
