Hey there, I see you're dealing with a tricky setup. Your FX-6300 is running on a sabertooth fx990 Rev2.0 with HD7950 and 8GB RAM, while your OS is on a Samsung 850 SSD. Recently, boot times got really slow, and you noticed the drive space is almost full—only about 40GB accounted for. You mentioned something about 180GB more being present, but you're curious if there are any clues or steps you can take to figure out what's causing this. Let me know if you'd like some guidance on checking storage usage or troubleshooting further!

Thanks for the update, it made sense why I was experiencing issues. The system had 200GB reserved for volume information, which stores all the restore points. That really clarified things.
