Windows takes up a 500GB partition on my laptop, because you can't make a windows partition smaller than half the drive.

I have only used it twice, once to download linux and once to find some info the needed when I sent it in for repairs.

Should I delete Windows?

@lizardsquid Ew. Maybe you should look into getting a tiny drive to put windows on if you really need to keep it.

@lizardsquid I'm guessing it is. I mean, I have windows installed on a small SSD with an HDD for data

@Felthry but is it possible to transfer an existing install onto a different, smaller drive?

@lizardsquid No clue, sorry. I don't work with software much.
