Maximum Shadow Copy Storage space: 69.864GB

I've got 2 HD's one is 250GB and the other is 500GB, but I'm only using System Restore on my C: drive and it has 397GB free so I know I have enough room. By looking at the space that System Restore is using that I posted above, is this why it's deleting them or should is there another reason that doesn't present itself here. I'm just not sure how much room is required to keep older points. Thanks.
Bowen,

It looks like you have enough space allocated.

Do you have a 3rd party program that may be deleting them? See:
