[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1224217, member: 24160"] OSX does a great job working with the files themselves. It does nothing, the best I can tell, related to free space. This primarily becomes an issue with those of us that deal with large files, moving lots of data on and off the drive and filling our system partition up to around 30% free space or less. At least 30% is where I see my drive access times slow down. I now maintain no less than 40% free space, same as I always did/do with Windows - only on system partitions - non-system partitions I maintain 15% free space. [/QUOTE]
