I'm betting piles of companies have this issue. When we finally get around to upgrading to 2012, I think we are going to start off nice and clean and try to import as little as possible. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bain.John Sent: Monday, February 15, 2016 10:14 PM To: Michael Niehaus; [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [MDT-OSD] RE: Is it odd for a MDT deployment to have 8 gigs worth of drivers ? To me it seems the major offenders are realtek, ATI and Intel. There driver packages are huge! Sent from my BlackBerry 10 smartphone on the Rogers network.

Driver bloat :-) That's a lot for 11 different systems, but I suspect the issue is more from importing all the extra garbage that's often packaged with the drivers (and lots of OSes and architectures that you don't need). If you wanted to spend a few fun days manually cleaning out all the junk, I'm guessing you could easily get it down under 1GB, and with even more work probably under 500GB. (I talked to an organization with over 400 models that had a 2GB driver repository.)

It seems to me like my driver packages are getting out of hand ... 8 gigs seems like a lot ... its bigger then my wim! I do system specific targeting for driver deployment and my deployment covers 11 different systems. Offline images are almost 18 gigs ________________________________ Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail is from a law firm and may be protected by the attorney-client or work product privileges.
