Are you planning on getting rid of the drive? Doesn't sound like it.
In preparation for an upgrade from HDD to SSD, I'm trying to free up disk space on my HDD (after deleting all unwanted files, essentially only keeping the OS + some programs).
What I've tried:
- Wipe free space using CC Cleaner (Thursday to Friday)
- Wipe free space using Eraser (Saturday)
- use generic windows tool to Clean Disk (Saturday)
- cipher /w:C (command line)
I'm also reasonably confident that I deleted enough of my heavy files. Still, about 600 / 900 GB of the HDD still appear to be occupied.
Any idea why this could be?
Thanks!Matt
