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).
November 15, 20223 yr 301GB Official 214GB Community. 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. Cough* Lime Sim Berlin*Cough

November 16, 20223 yr I feel inadequate. Mine's only 192GB 🙁 But I have another 96Gb in my Community folder so I feel better now. 😁 i9-10850K, ASUS TUF GAMING Z490-PLUS (WI-FI), 32GB G.SKILL DDR4-3603 / PC4-28800, GIGABYTE RTX5080 16GB WF OC 3 FAN running 3440x1440
November 16, 20223 yr 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?

November 17, 20223 yr Just as a heads up, these KingSpec drives are causing quite a stir out there, as they seem to be both fast and very cheap EDIT: ALSO Edited November 17, 20223 yr by HiFlyer We are all connected.....
