No, feds will find your midget porn and you will be fired. Also all your friends will hate you.
Yes you retard, its safe if you don't go around deleting random shit.
>Use windirstat to see what useless shit you have
This except spend 2 hours deciding whether you need to delete it or not then say nah I might need that and clear up a grand 10GB after a half day of work

Basic common sense.
Not him but explain to me RIGHT NOW what the point of an offsite backup is. RAID protects against drive corruption, what more do you need? >uhhhh but what if your house burns down or something???
Then I think I've got more important things to worry about than the loss of some data.
Also explain to me how I'm supposed to handle offsite backups, do you expect me to bury a HDD in a box outside and dig it up every month to update it or something? >inb4 just use someone else's computer ("""the cloud""") lol
No.
Anon, I already have a "backup" (it's 2 mirrored drives) and IIRC they cost me like $500 each when I bought them in 2021.
It really depends on what's available, but I don't want to delete anything major.
i simply delete stuff when i'm done with it
>deleting your music collection >deleting your photos and videos >deleting your obscure archived files
your music collection
buy a guitar and play your own music
your photos and videos
live in the moment and enjoy your memories
your obscure archived files
no one cares about your /misc/l/ memes when you're dead
Yeah bro, ypou tell him! Don't forget about those nerds playing games, either! Playing Bomberman? Nah, just make pipebombs and play with your friends! Call of Duty? Join the Marines!
>delete your old shit
I actually regret not burning / backing up shit when I was younger. Lost so much random shit from the mid 2000s. rip 80GB seagate drive, wherever you are.
>that fucking HDD is literally wheezing, jesus christ dude buy that backup already
That's not a backup, retard-kun.

Most of my bulk storage is on my home server. I delete things if I don't like them or decide I will never be interested in them again. If space gets tight beyond that, I buy more HDDs.
I buy another drive, move all the shit off. Then get more shit to put in the original drive, forgetting about the second one that is now in the closet. Yes I'm retarded.
I clear out my porn folder by uploading everything to israelitegle Drive. I don't have any dolphin porn or anything like that, so there's no need to encrypt. If I ever run out of free storage, I just make another account. I don't bother looking through anything I've saved, I just save it in case another PH purge occurs.
If I'm ever in a (uni) group project with a tech-illiterate normalfag(s), I can put everything in a folder, compress it, send it to them, and tell them to run:
tar -xvzf ~/Downloads/Dolphins_Folder.tar.gz -C ~/Desktop/ && aplay/dev/urandom if they're a macfag, and
tar -xvzf C:UsersFagg0tDownloadsDolphins_Folder.tar.gz -C C:UsersFagg0tDesktop if they're a wintard
Not sure if those commands are correct--I never bother memorizing them--I'd have to look through the manpage. I read that tar is supported on Mandingos 10's cmd/powershell, but if it isn't, I'll just tell them to use 7z or Winrar, and tell them that this happened because Gnu/naggers hacked them, or because they didn't pay for a Winrar license.
Remove all the movies and anime you have saved. The chance of that media disapearing from the internet is really low.
If you are really paranoid just save all the .torrent files.
Put all your futa hentai / animoo on a separate drive. Then run rsync until all the drives catch fire. Then beg the private trackers general for an invite. Or something.
The Download folders has become a nightmare ever since Firefox decided to download any PDF you open on it, regardless of whether you would want to keep it or not.
I clean drives more often, but when you become a hoarder obsessed with the fact that if you don't save you may never find it again, it becomes a lost fight. And the worst part is that the bigger the storage you have, the worse it gets, and the harder it is to clean. When i had a phone with very limited storage, weekly reviewing and deleting stuff was an habit. Now with 128gb, I never clean and I worry about the day I run out of space and spent hours deciding what to keep and what to delete.
I stopped caring about that since my drive is now a mess of 4+ years of Uni and installing all the garbage software they forced us to, so after graduating, i just plan to do a clean system re-install.
i blow on them
take it out and shake it a little
Use windirstat to see what useless shit you have, and remove all the windows update installation files
run disk cleanup as admin to avoid having to rescan for that shit
Is it safe to use this? Is there a chance any important files are deleted?
Dude, get off the internet and go play outside.
Please help

well fuck me, i don't even have updates enabled and it still managed to clear up 5GB of space
raid is not backup moron.
you need an off site backup i.e. another physical drive
Not him but explain to me RIGHT NOW what the point of an offsite backup is. RAID protects against drive corruption, what more do you need?

Simple, I buy a clean drive of the same size, copy all my data over, and throw away the old, dirty drive
cleanmgr (as admin) + bleachbit, the perfect combination
Fire.
Windirstat and revo uninstaller
>revo uninstaller
cringeware
Give me an alternative then.
install gentoo
bcuninstaller
+ weekly tron script run
you don't need anything else for maintenance + "le useless files"
Actually great recommendations. Thanks for not being a fag about it.
np anon! also remember to drink water and get lots of sleep!
i simply delete stuff when i'm done with it
I don't get them dirty
steel wool and standard detergent
like with a cloth?
>Using multiple drive letters
>Not using a root file system

for me, it's treesize
windirstat is freetard trash
By not running windows like a dumb little bitch
microwave
I remove files I don't need
Most of my bulk storage is on my home server. I delete things if I don't like them or decide I will never be interested in them again. If space gets tight beyond that, I buy more HDDs.
I have two drives:
I - Organized Drive
II - Random Shit Drive
And everything in II slowly gets deleted or moved to I.
Super easy.
>- Organized Drive
>II - Random Shit Drive
This is an insight into the Zoomer windows user's brain
Same basically, everything downloads to D: then I move it into place or delete it
Been using Windows since 95 (and DOS before that)
>tfw I have one organized drive, and the rest are random shit drives because I'm a lazy homosexual and just randomly dump shit into folders.
Not sure. I think I just need to hit delete and deal with it. Realistically I'll never clean it otherwise.
Why not just buy more HDDs?
>RamDisk (R:)
My nagger
>5 out of 7 are still blue
You need to download more content.
>RAID1 Software
I bet that's the tranny midget pron drive.
>install ramdisk
>use it to download more ram
who else /unlimitedpower/ here
malloc()
rm -rf
buy a new bigger drive, copy the things i want to keep, then wipe the junk
I buy another drive, move all the shit off. Then get more shit to put in the original drive, forgetting about the second one that is now in the closet. Yes I'm retarded.
i dont download anything

Unless you can kill someone with an pacemaker with it, you can't use it to clean your drives

Thats really adorable anon.
Upgraded from an 8gb phone, so it's an improvement. Losing the bloody microsd card slot because it's shared with the second sim, not so much.
>he """needs""" more
I buy more hard drives.
launch TreeSize, go through biggest files and decide which ones I don't need
I stopped caring about that since my drive is now a mess of 4+ years of Uni and installing all the garbage software they forced us to, so after graduating, i just plan to do a clean system re-install.
wiztree is faster than windirstat
rm -rf /mnt/naggerdriver
They clean themselves up when they die.
# rm -rf $BLOATED_DIR
i dont. i just buy new ones when space is low
Move files from one drive/partition to another manually in batches, delete the unwanted, reformat empty drive/partition, start anew
