Yeah, 128GB is too little. Get at least 256GB is possible. Even with 256GB, you'll need to manage your usage but not as bad as 128GB. My older MacBooks were 256GB. Newer ones 512GB. Of course, no matter how much you have, you'll fill it up.

But my budget cannot go any higher then 128gb.. cry.gif
It is either a 128gb macbook pro for me or windows laptop...
My concern will be how much space will the Mac Os will fill up in the future? If the mac os wont take more then 30% i think can manage, just need to delete program that i seldom use or put in cloud. But if the mac os takes up a large shunk of that 128gb then that is a problem..

128gb just for macOS should be ok
as currently my MBA is 128GB but i dual boot Windows/Mac
so the personal file i store in 64 GB SD card permenently attach to MBA.

No i mean out from the box the macOs will take up 20gb from what i have read. My question is with future updates will this 20gb increase a lot or not much???

my 512gb left less than 150gb of space after 6 months of usage.

so err... depends on what you do on the machine. design softwares? or just a facebook machine + light assignment?

Will be doing a little video editing like holiday videos.. Nothing professional where there will be speacial effects..

macos system size actually reduced or maintained the same over major updates, theres no need to worry about it

128gb is still very sufficient for most normal users, and if you utilise cloud storage then i dont see why 128gb should be a problem, but if for intense user, 128gb is definitely not enough, 5 1080p movie will take up half of the space already, a cheap cheap external hard disk is a great solution for unimportant file

Ya just wanted to know will in the future will the macOs its 20gb space or is it going to grow larger. If i have about 100gb free space for my stuff i think it is about enough. Get the 50gb package from icloud also will be much cheaper then the 256gb macbook. Is video editing for youtube videos consider a intense user???
