So as title says , i need to make room on SSD , What can i remove  ?
Do not need tutorials at all - And they seem the best to get some space back  ?
 
Do i just find them in Control Centre and click uninstall  ? 
Can always download them again if i want and just put them on my 4TB drive .
 
Thanks
Dan

Key info:
What do you have on this SSD?
And  also, if it's a matter of a couple of gigas, it will be full again in a short while.
Deleting something may serve as a first aid, but a bigger SSD would be the answer.

I agree, and they have come down in price quite a bit.
 
I'm currently "looking" at the Samsung 850 Pro 1 TB which is around £400, and less if you shop around.

I have one of those as my system drive and it works wonderfully.

Tutorials are a good candidate, they consume almost 900MB. Uninstalling w/ Command Center should do it. Right-click on the SONAR Tutorials line to bring up the context menu. Consider clearing out the Command Center download cache and/or change the location to another drive if you have one.

Ah! Interesting Karyn,
 
I have a 256GB 840 Pro as my system disk on my lappy. I was wondering if the 850 Pro's were okay, because when manufacturers update and "improve" their hardware, they sometimes break it.
 
But the 850 Pro is good then?
 
edit:-
 
I've just done a disk cleanup and cleared 10 gigibites from my system drive...

Correction,  mine's the 840 evo not pro, sorry.  Similar, but different.  The evo works great...

I have a 256gb 850 Pro and it is flawless. I keep the downloads on an hd and have about 110gb free. Most data is on HD, OS and pgms on SSD.

Windows generates a lot of temp files. If you haven't cleaned out temp files lately, you can probably save several GB. 
 
Another possibility: Instead of getting a bigger SSD, buy an external drive and put all your content and data on that.

Ah, right then... I'll have to be the trail blazer on that then... I'll keep you posted.
