[QUOTE="jazzer, post: 1123186, member: 173800"] Just thought I would give you an update on the hard drive file space issue. It turns out that there were duplicate files on the hard drive that was taking up the space. Evidently when they did the data transfer, folders were initially placed in the Public folder and then moved from there. Some of the files were never deleted from the Public folder. I also found some duplicate folders in a couple of other spots including in the Trash. After deleting these files I now show 1.72 TB free, which is about what I would have expected based on the files I was having transferred. That should keep me for a while ;). Thanks again for everyone's help. [/QUOTE]
