Striper Talk Striped Bass Fishing, Surfcasting, Boating - View Single Post - My OSD shows 135Gig used, I cannot find more than 20Gig total

My OSD shows 135Gig used. If I go through all the files listed in windows explorer , I cannot find even 20 Gig. What is using all the rest? I mean its like a 6 to 1 mismatch.

The reason I ask is because I might get an SSD. I have tons of simple storage capacity so what i want the SSD for is for speed from the OSD. You can get a 64 or 96 Gb SSD reasonable low prices but above 128 Gb they are expensive.

I just cannot find what is accounting for 85% of my supposedly used drive space.

Any ideas?
