    So long answer short, I think if it's made it 4 years without hogging HDD space it might make it another year or two.

    I backed up the vista install and now installing win 7 so see how much space that takes, anyone here familiar with the HP X4000 workstation ? This was a hard garbage find but runs perfectly with twin xeon 2.4 gig cpu's, 3 gig ram and plenty of usb/firewire ports- my only real problem is it takes about 5 mins to boot up with all the checks and i cant find anyway to speed it up apart from enabling quick boot.

    DL an application called "TreeSize" brilliant shareware app for finding out exactly what is REALLY happening inside the file system.
