I don't need it. As long as I don't save anything in it, it'll not write anything to it. I'm using 30GB SSD, and it's still almost 10GB left after almost 2 years (and it's almost the same free space as when I installed it). Everything is stores in external USB 3.0 drive. It works as smooth as butter without any special treatment, and the infamous OZ SSD I installed almost 2 years ago still work fine too. In my believe, the less settings the longer it last.......

well if you dont need it, so be it,
on my 32GB SSD, im happy that PageFile and System Restore
dont eat my disk space. its crucial for me.

disabling those 2 makes you gains back many GB's of space.

i personally did my optimization steps to Beer40's new htpc via Team Viewer,
and we can confirm you we gain back 4GB of space by just doing those 2 tweaks!

from 15GB to 19GB in a split second!

Yes we did it.... everything seems to work. Everything is running very nice now. Bluray time to watch some vids and relax....
No worries I made a snap shot before we did all the SSD stuff just incase.

I will do the same as well as accompanying my movie w/ a nice cold beer!

Yes....after a hard work (I have to mow the lawn, kill the weeds, replaced air intake/cabin filters in the cars, etc) today, it is time to enjoy the movie or NBA. If you have this "Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-950Q", you can enjoy Mavs and Lakers game on ABC (HD 1080P OTA) on your A6-3500....it's a good stuff!

So with this I can pick up all my local HD channels for free? or can it do more?

Yes....that is what it for.....I used to have one last year. I'm using a similar internal HD TV tuner card now.....it pick up all local HD channel with ease...

Updated the first page.... I hope to get some videos soon.

As requested Eskro.......

The systems boots at 20 seconds at the push of the button.... before the ssd optimize steps it also booted the same time.
I have 21GB free out of 29.7GB when i did this. You can see a video here... I have no delay on XBMC....
