File+Storage

File Storage

One of the most important things to know about how files are stored is the amount of storage you have and how much you can actually store. Recommendation: Don't use more than 75% of your hard drive space.

HOW DO I KNOW HOW MUCH HARD DRIVE SPACE I HAVE?
 * Double-click **My Computer**
 * Right-click Local Disk (or whatever your C: drive is called)
 * Click the General tab if it didn't default to that selection.
 * The pie graph will show you what's been used/unused.

HOW DO I KNOW THE SIZE OF A FILE?
 * Option 1: Open the file, and click File => Properties.
 * Option 2: Look for the file through My Computer. Right-click and select Properties.
