do anyone know how much hdd space each emulator takes up ie kawax ,neogenesis surreal64 etc this would be very helpfull to me .i just got mine done 120gig and dont seem to have much hdd space left 80gig i havent put any games on the hdd drive yet. is this about the norm to have only 80gig left. thanks

80gig is alot of space left you have enough space left to put 20 games at 4gig each (which are large files)

ya dude emulaters are AT MOST 5.00 mb in size. i dont know who installed the hdd for you but if thats all you have on there he TOTALLY ripped you off. if you want you could just delete everything and than see how much space is on there.(but backup every thing first)

At the very least, there should be about 110gb after a complete reinstallation of the drives. Go into boXplorer. Press start (drive select) and look at each partition. It will tell you the total space, then the space used. Add up each partition and you will see how much space is on the drive.

I try and warn everyone to not get anything professionally done. They maybe good as soldering, but they are really moronic when it comes to service.
