February 22, 20242 yr I paid about $198 for a 4TB nVME drive. My motherboard only has one slot. I just cloned my old drive (2TB) over to the new drive and swapped out. All is well. This was about 6 months ago. Getting ready to run both MS2020 and MS2024 on that one drive. The one I bought was recommended in Tom's hardware as a very good budget drive. "And SSDs seem to have gone up in price a bit lately." Yes, the drive I bought for $198 is now $230 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B25P44CL/ 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

Have 80GB deleted from the game and that might be it. There are two scenery packs and an airport or two I'd like to get on the next sale. Lots of room now. ___________________________I'm just flying for the fun of it.

I have a 500GB SSD for MSFS, and it was starting to get a bit full. And SSDs seem to have gone up in price a bit lately. Just knocked out 40GB of MSFS, nice to have a bit more free space. I recently got rid of all the training flights, landing challenges, bush trips & aircraft I do not fly. I think it was a decent amount of space saved. I also use addons linker to keep my community folder as lean as possible. It is easy to just re install anything you find you need using the content manager.

Thanks. 25 minutes ago, RJC68 said: I also use addons linker to keep my community folder as lean as possible. It is easy to just re install anything you find you need using the content manager. I don't really understand the ins and outs of the community folder so I leave it alone. ___________________________I'm just flying for the fun of it.
