| | Back up Trouble Need Help I have a 500 gig HD Western Digital and I am using it as a primary back up for Windows Vista Home Edition back up system .I noticed that I am using 85 % already and it has only been backing up for a few months now? The Main HD that is being backed up is only 150 Gig . I am not running that much on it actually most of the main HD is still available. Can anyone please let me know how I can get this to purge and get more space on my Western Digital HD. Backing up should not take that much space . This HD should be able to last for years to come I don't process that much data. I can't understand why my HD is so full already . When I try to go and find the folders not much is available to see it's invisible but my pie chart says full? Any Assistance is appreciated. Best Regards, Dean. |
