Installing your operating system to the ssd.
How big is windows 10 os on ssd.
It might go up further when you download and install updates.
And then you run all the current and future updates.
Is this enough space i know it is recommend to have more than 50gb this thread is locked.
How much space does windows 10 take on a ssd.
With the retail price of about 85 to 110 it hardly makes.
Windows 10 size on hdd 32 gb ssd enough i d like to make a clean install on my ssd.
Computer cases are form factored to fit 3 5 inch drives the standard size for most hdd s and some even come with extra mounting brackets to fit 2 5 inch drives the standard size for ssd s.
The base install of win 10 will be around 20gb.
But if users are going to opt 64 bit version then 20 gb of free ssd space is necessitated.
An ssd needs 15 20 free space so for a 128gb drive you really only have 85gb space you can actually use.
There is a lot of speculation about the exact size required by windows 10 on an ssd.
But after installation windows 10 takes up about 16gb space for 32 bit os and 20gb for the 64 bit variant.
However chances are good you ll have to buy a separate 2 5 inch mounting bracket.
According to the specifications and requirements of windows 10 in order to install the operating system on a computer users need to have 16 gb of free space on ssd for the 32 bit version.
As a result your 128gb ssd will provide less than 119gb of storage for programs and data.
Subtract the space used by windows 10 and you could be left with around 90gb to 100gb.
