[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1642256, member: 24160"] At least 30 GB free... and what size is the OS X partition? While it could be a dying drive - If that's the free space on anything larger than a 100-200 GB partition, you flat out don't have enough free space and what free space you do have is fragmented from one end of the drive to the other with not enough contiguous free space for the operating system to use adequately and you are using the slowest portion of the drive.
