We have a customer who is running out of free disk space on the 'C' drive of
their SBS2003 server.

Are you able to suggest areas of the 'C' drive which could be prone to using
large amounts of disk space i.e. IIS logs etc. and which can be
deleted/trimmed accordingly.

Naturally, I do not wish to delete anything which is key to SBS2003 running
smoothly.

Could the response to the above question also apply to SBS2008?

I look forward to hearing from you.

Regards

Download and run windirstat or treesize pro free to find out what is eating
your space.

How large is the system partition, or maybe I should ask 'how small'.

I have a long list of stuff that can/should be moved off the system partition,
search for this or post back and I will post it again.

WinDirStat is a great free tool for seeing where your space is going. I use
it on all my servers. Just google it.
