For the month of September we thought it would be interesting to see how much of your primary hard disk drive you're using. Feel free to comment on how big your primary hard disk drive is, how much total space you're using if you've got multiple drives, talk about freeing disk space, etc.

If you need help determining how much disk space your hard drive is using see the below link.

All past monthly polls and results can also be found on the Computer Hope poll page.

Primary drive is 500GB, used space: 20.2GB.
I fall neatly between two poll options, haha.
I'm voting for 6-20GB though, as if I clean up the junk on here it'll be less than 20GB.

Curious about folding?  Click above or PM me.  You can make a difference.

My HDD on my primary PC is big. I chose it so my primary PC becomes my main server, I use a old Dell Dimension PC as a test server, and I build a new PC.

My Primary PC costed $700.
My Next PC will be only $600.

My Next PC will be only $600.
Why?
1. My Primary PC's costs included Windows.
2. My Next PC's costs will not include Windows.

Waaaah! I can't answer the poll right now. I'll check my drive space once I get home.

Question... Is the partition will consider or just the whole size of my HDD?

For my Machine 1:
500GB Samsung SATA HDD (partitioned)
C: Total Size is 195GB, Used Space is 16.0GB, Free Space is 179GB
D: Total Size is 195GB, Used Space is 17.7GB, Free Space is 177GB
E: Total Size is 75.1GB, Used Space is 3.83GB, Free Space is 71.2GB

As you can see on my specs, I have two HDD for my Machine 2.
For my Machine 2:
40GB Seagate Barracuda - Used Space is 10.3GB. Free Space is 26.9GB
40GB Seagate Barracuda - Used Space is 26.0GB. Free Space is 11.2GB
