With Warlords of Draenor coming out, I have reached a dilemma.
I have a 120GB SSD (111GB available), on which Windows 7 Professional and the game client for World of Warcraft with all current expansions is installed.
I have absolutely no idea how much space WoW with all of its expansions takes (I searched for a while last night with no definitive answer), likewise, something seems very wrong here.
Using WinDirStat, I have done a bit of analysis, and here's what I've found:
World of Warcraft: 35.0GB
Windows: 16.0GB
Users: 12.3GB
<Files>: 14.0GB (pagefile.sys = 8.0GB; hiberfil.sys = 6.0GB)
This comes to 77.3GB.
Now, I understand there will be some odds and ends that will nickle and dime the storage away. But, being that I currently have 20.1GB free of 111GB, that's *seemingly* a lot of "nickle and diming".
Beyond what I listed above, 33.7GB are potentially wasted somewhere; a variance of
13.6GB that surely I can free somehow.
I can post any screenshots necessary of WinDirStat.
Is it looking like I am going to have to get a new SSD just for a single game?
