    Win8 Space Occupy ?


    Anyone running Windows8 Beta, how much does it take up after installation ? Linux can take up the least but decided not to go Linux.

    Unless I missed something, I believe there is no Beta yet. It should be well under 20GB. But it will mushroom.

    People are using the Windows 8 Developer Preview not the Beta but the Beta will be there in a few weeks I think. I also use Linux and its installation is generally fast and consumes only like 5GBs. I think the speed of installation depends on your machine but Windows 8 installs somewhat faster than Windows 7 and takes under 20GB of space.

    You could simply search the eightforums.com for answers regarding Windows 8.
