Home Storage Management – Week 1

So after discussions on home storage, I’m going to do a weekly cleanup/report on what I’ve achieved. Here’s the baseline;

Main Server; 927GB of usable storage (via Drobo) – 768GB in use. (82.84%). In fact I’ve consolidated a pair of mirrored 400GB drives onto the Drobo to make the full 768GB, so I’ve already freed these drives to be removed.

Laptop;

C: – 103GB total, 75.4GB in use (73.2%)

L: – 38.7GB, 34.85GB in use (90%)

I’ve included both C: (O/S) and L: (data) as my offline folder is on the C: drive

Desktop;

C: – 57.2GB – 34.3GB used (60%)

D: – 97.6GB – 4GB used (4.1%)

E: – 274GB – 133GB used (48.5%)

So that’s the baseline. The first saving is to delete the Exchange backup – 314GB. More to follow.
