    Excess Files I Can't Look At?


    I'm trying to free up space on my hard drive and I seem to have a few hundred GBs of storage I can't look at. Can anyone help me understand my situation better??


    I will update as I can with information that may help. If you need me to do something or verifying anything just tell me what and I'll do my best to get the information on here.

    This picture shows my storage devices. The "1TBD D: - 931 GB" is the one I'm trying to free up space on.

    This picture shows what files I've got to work with. The "Other" files are what I'm having trouble with.

    My problem is that I only see, roughly, 3 GB of things I could delete. Where's the other THREE HUNDRED OR SO?????

    Uber file server build -- suggestions

    Uber file server build -- suggestions?

    I'm currently in the process of buying stuff for my file server build. Going to try and keep this build all in one thread this time.

    Stuff already bought:


    • Motherboard (socket 1155 H61)
      RAM (1600MHz)
      PCI SATA cards
      Operating System (Windows 8 + FreeNAS)
      SSD
      CPU (35w Pentium Ivybridge 2.6GHz)
    Looking for suggestions on:


    • GPU -- use the on-die GPU or buy a PCI-E graphics card (was thinking of a 7750)? My only requirement is that it is able to run 1080p mkv files and play Blurays without a problem.
      Case -- needs to hold as many 3.5" drives as humanly possible (more than 10 at least), while not being too expensive
      PSU -- needs to be able to run over 40 SATA HDDs as well as 6xPCI RAID cards and 1xPCI-E 2.0 RAID card. Silver, Gold or Platinum?
      CPU Cooler -- fanless or not?
      Case fans
    That's all I can think of for now...unless I'm forgetting something...oh and one more thing -- I will be buying the hard drives two at a time as I run out of space. Also the PCI-E RAID card will be bought a lot later down the line, as I've only just got enough hard drives for 1 out of 6 of my PCI SATA cards.

    Any suggestions, feel free to post. Thanks
