On the 1TB gaming SSD MSFS uses 559GB (Fenix, PMDG, FBW, Headwind with their liveries  and a whole lot of sceneries free and paid) and AIG installed on another drive uses 46GB. Definitely going to pick up a 2TB SSD in the coming months.

251, standard edition

Lean and mean, a lesson learned and my main takeaway from P3D. Less is more.

Hardware: i7-8700k, GTX 1070-ti, 32GB ram, NVMe/SSD drives with lots of free space.
Software: latest Windows 10 Pro, P3Dv4.5+, FSX Steam, and lots of addons (100+ mostly Orbx stuff).

It was at almost 700 so I had to clean house and only keep the things I used and I got rid of some sceneries that were just too big.

Mines about 650gb. Which is tiny compared to the 2.7TB I ended up with in XP11 for a postage stamp of acceptable scenery.

I feel inadequate. Mine's only 192GB 🙁

But I have another 96Gb in my Community folder so I feel better now. 😁

Great question.  On a very related note, I love the concept of dedicating.  That said, isn't there a performance loss by not having FS2020 on the same drive as the OS?  I thought the best setup would be the OS on the same drive.  And...  If that be the case, then one would need a huge drive to accommodate the OS, FS2020, DCS, IL-2, etc... on a single drive.  Thoughts?
