RE: Space is filling up
Probably not. At this point, I'd say his options are limited to either deleting data to free up some space or getting a bigger hard drive. Unless his situation is like mine and he only needs to keep the data for a certain period of time, the bigger hard drive is definitely the way to go. And since hard drives are so cheap now, I'd be tempted to go that route even if he can age out data. I'm seeing ads for 200G drives for $90.00.
