Thanks.

Thought I read that Win10 alone will take up some 100GB space.

My Dell desktop failed some 2 yrs ago due to motherboard issue. Decided to get a new Dell desktop. Getting all the programs & files in the new PC was a nightmare I do not wish to go through again. Thus now doing 2-4 weekly backup of C drive.

right it's a better practice to always split data from os/applications physically. a lot of time can be saved just by doing this. usually this is done by a minimal 2-drive setup: one is for os (ssd), another one is for data (hdd).

if you have the habit to store files in Documents folder only in windows-based os, at least move those default locations to another physical drive. make backups for data and system images at regular basis.
