HDD Space On Server

rafman64 · 07-01-2009, 05:37 AM

In my office we have a server linking all our computers. There is a 500gb hard drive in it.

I am having difficulty adding anything to the hard drive as it tells me me my available space is only 17mb and there is no space on the hard drive, but on everyone else's computer it says there is over 300gb left.

We all have administrative privileges so i don't understand why i have been restricted.

Can anyone tell me why my available space is considerably less then everyone else's ???

Are quotas enabled on the drive? Check properties of the disk when logged on to the server locally.
