So I’ve been consolidating all of my storage and removing all the duplicates and junk files.

In actual physical storage, this was spread across 12TB worth of hard drives, all partially full.

After everything was said and done, I’m using 1.3TB of space if you don’t include games. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is stuff dating back to 2015. Sometimes it’s actually worth it to just clean up your junk files.

    This is actually what lead me to set up a software RAID - my family is primarily Windows and I didn’t want to remember if the files were on D:, F:, G:, K:, etc. I’d rather have a root folder that’s extendable.
