Remove signs Low Disk Space

galaxyrooter

My PC has an ssd and 2 hdds 

on the 149 Gb Games partition I have GTA 5, NBA 2K18, ABZU, ETS2 and it almost fills it up and I want to get rid of the red color and any sign of it being full.

I want it to act like the other 3 partitions and be blue and "not full" as I like my s**t perfect

I dunno, I just remembered it as 240gb so I wrote 240gb.

1 drive is the 850evo 250gb=232gb

1 drive is Seagate B. 250gb=232gb

1 drive is WD Blue 320gb=2x149gb

Not sure I can make a partition that includes 2 drives

Windows only allows a partition to be extended if there is free space on the partition's right side, not on the left.

windows is stupid. 

Even their entire OS imaging is stupid too. Requires the same physical size drive and not the total use space. Let's say you have a 8TB HDD as a OS and you only used 100GB. Then you create a image for it, using the windows imaging utility. When you want to restore that image to another drive, it also has to be 8TB. Cannot be something small like a 1TB, even though the image size is only 100GB.

I think they might have fixed this problem.

I see you have 3 HDDs, each of them is 320GB. What is in drive F? Is drive F important?

Yes it does, ever since Vista. I think starting with Professional and higher. It's still there in Windows 10. It's under the classic control panel>system and security>Backup and Restore (Windows 7), and on the left hand side, Create a system image. In here, you can also create a repair disc.

Windows is hard coded to mark any drive that has less than 10% free space as 'Red'.  There's no way around it as far as I've found.

I've looked into this for different reasons, I have a large media server that presents it's 58TB of storage as a single drive.  That means at once there's 'only' 5.8TB remaining, that's 10% so the drive is 'in the red' even if 5.8TB is kinda a LOT of space.
