HI

Last week I bought home my new system with Windows 8. When I check my 120 GB solid state drive it shows that I only have 26 GB left. I didn't installed anything yet and I am wondering what is taking all my hard drive space?

Is this a laptop or a desktop branded machine or a hand built machine?

The reason ask is because a laptop and a branded desktop usually come with a shed load of bundled software which can fill up the hard drive.

The actual space you get on a 120GB hard drive is 111.76GB and according to this site windows 8 can take up between 7 and 15GB.
