hard drive storage
I have an XPs 420 which is about 3 years old. It has 283GB of memory, and I have it almost full. I have performed disc defragmentation and file cleaning, but it has little effect. Dell diagnostics shows that the system is "performing normally", and a scan shows that everything is healthy. When I use the drive space manager to get the pie graph representation, it show that most of my memory is "unscanned". I do digital graphics and animation, so I do use up a lot of memory, but I store most of it on an external hard drive. I have deleted everything I can to make more room, but most of my memory is still unaccounted for.
Help!

Hi Coyne7,
"Memory" refers to RAM. I think you're talking about your hard drive, correct? How much used versus free space is shown in that pie chart?
