Managing Hard Disk Drive Space
The space available for recording TV programs
depends on your hard disk drive allocation, drive
size, and default recording quality selections. The
HP Media Center PC requires a certain amount of
space to run your Windows XP operating system,
run software programs, and store data files. If your
hard disk drive becomes full, it may affect the PC
speed and performance. You may need to free up
storage space to record more programs or to
optimize the performance of your PC. There are
several things you can do to optimize and increase
your hard disk drive space.
The PC comes with a hard disk drive. Depending on
your model, the hard disk drive has 80 gigabytes
(GB) to more than 200 GB of total disk space. The
PC comes with preloaded software programs and a
backup partition within the hard disk drive that takes
up a certain amount of space on the hard disk drive.
Increasing hard disk drive space
■ Adjust TV recording settings.
■ Adjust Recorder storage settings.
■ Use the Disk Cleanup Utility.
■ Adjust the System Restore settings.
■ Delete recorded TV programs from the
Recorded TV folder in Shared Documents.
■ Uninstall software programs.
■ Archive TV programs to a DVD if your PC has
a DVD Writer drive. See “Recording TV
Shows to DVDs” on page 109.
