Don't download stuff you're not using.

Just remember: Random people on the internet ALWAYS know more than professionals, when someone's lying, AND can predict the future.

Move media off it and only put games on it that you either are playing or know for definite you are going to play.

i did, I invested in a 1tb WD black drive. I store almost all of my files there. However, yesturday, my SSD jumped from 191 GB to 179 GB randomly.

NOTE, I did update geforce Experience that day, But I don't think it would of taken up 10 GB of disk space.

hmm i don't know a great deal about hdds they are not my forte but i would say defrag it, you also may have bad sectors forming, and run Ccleaner.
