Hi Ronni, I have a question on the same subject. My HD on the 2009 iMac is 1TB and available now is 157GB. Enough ? Or should I look at moving iTunes files or iPhoto files to an ext/HD ?
I am also now looking at the language file situation. Thanks Walter > > > > > Hi Rosemary, > 15.2GB is nowhere near enough available space.
