Running out of SSD space on Dell Latitude
I have to believe this is a FAQ, and I did search, but am still quite confused. Please be nice
I have a Dell Latitude laptop with a 64 GB SSD. I am badly running out of space. I have tried to reinstall applications such that they are not on the c: drive. I have tried to use symlinks to try to move some of the user data off the c, although that is starting to become a mess.
I note that my C partition is 45.95 GB and another 13.68 GB are used up by a recovery partition.
It seems that I have a few options:
1. Move the recovery partition to another drive, although there seems to be lots of issues reported on this forum when trying to restore from this moved recovery partition.
2. Purchase a larger ssd and figure out how to duplicate the current smaller drive to the larger drive without having to reinstall the OS and programs.
3. Just delete the recovery partition, and, if needed, get an OS install disk from Dell or Microsoft (there seems to be download locations listed in some of the threads), then using the OS sticker on the laptop to validate the OS.
What say you?
Many thanks!
