FS9 takes up considerable room on my PC. I believe it's close to 15 GB, although it has consumed as much as 25 at one point in time. I've recently installed GE Pro (Ground Environment) on an external hard drive to avoid using hard needed space on my old C-drive. GE Pro alone will comprise quite a few gigabyes once you have installed the various ground textures. There's one thing I'm wondering about though. Do many others choose to install new - and large - software on additional discs? Is this a good thing to do when FS9 is located on the C-drive? Hope to hear from you guys. Thanks. :-)

15 gigs? You're worrying about 15? I just checked and my FS disk is nearly full, I have about 6.4 gigs left; FS is taking up 48 gigs now. And I KNOW that I'm not the biggest. I've a folder on a second drive which holds offline aircraft that I'm not using and have about 6.3 gigs of scenery files which I haven't installed yet. 15 gigs, it is to laugh!(Said with tongue firmly in cheek, you know!):D

Thanks. :-) You could get really fancy and use a mapped network drive to a file server and keep everything remote (add-on sceneries can be any where). With modern Gigabit Lan (1gbps) on a lightly loaded network, lag is minimal. I have almost nothing left on the local machine. I can not imagine life with out a file server now (and reinstalls are almost so fast its trivial - I reinstalled WindowsXP, Vista and Xubuntu Linux - full Linux HDD block-check Format to fully restored systems - in one evening).apps - localdata - remotelife - easierCheersShad
