...10Gb on a system drive on a system using asp.net and sql server? ...you've got more guts than I do :) ...or more likely you know a lot more than I do ...but I stopped buying SBS pre-installed from Dell because they did things like that ...I "waste" at least 30Gb on the system drive and more if I have it to spare ...the nasty thing about the system drive is that once you've formatted it ...and then you install something that insists on using it ...its a royal bitch to change its size without going through all sorts of conniptions ...so I always start with at least twice as much space as I think I could possibly ever need ...with the price of terrabyte hds these days, why not? ...as for asp.net chewing up resources when its compiling, I've not noticed it as yet but then I'm not building anything nearly as large or complicated as you ...and never intend to :) ...vs'8 and 3.5 are really, really sweet ...ms has paid a lot of attention to developer feedback of late and its showing up now, imnsho.
