A Data Hoarder, I Am Not
So I’ve been consolidating all of my storage and removing all the duplicates and junk files.
In actual physical storage, this was spread across 12TB worth of hard drives, all partially full.
After everything was said and done, I’m using 1.3TB of space if you don’t include games. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This is stuff dating back to 2015. Sometimes it’s actually worth it to just clean up your junk files.
You're viewing a single thread.
On what types of junk files did you save most of the space?
I had a bad habit whenever I would go to reinstall an OS to just copy the entire user folder into one of many places on my largest hard drive. I had at least 4 or 5 of these. So tons of it was cache files.
New Folder (5)(copy) in a directory called TO SORT.
Permanently Deleted
I've still got "To Sort" folders on spindles of DVDs lol
Hah i have multiple to sort folders. Sigh
Oh yeah I can definitely relate! Though I do delete the more useless parts of them gradually.
So it's not just me 😞
