2000 Server running out of disk space

37Seconds · 02-07-2007, 08:55 AM

Hi all,

I have a Windows 2000 Server running on a computer that has a 4 GB C:\ drive and a 60 GB D:\ drive. Almost all of the programs installed on the server, as well as all files that are saved, were installed to the D:\ drive and pretty much the only thing that resides on the C:\ drive is the OS. The server is running out of hard drive space for the C:\ drive. It is down to around 200 MB of free space.

Does anyone have any idea on what could be taking up so much space on the hard drive, maybe logs??

Thanks....

Could be logs. You could use this program to see what files take up how much space.

As a note, I normally make the OS partition around 12-20GB.
