Is a 250gb SSD enough to run windows 10 and a few other games?

[meyer.fede99]

Im getting a 250gb ssd and i want to make it the boot drive and install the OS in it but I'm wondering with how many GB I'm going to be left with after Windows 10 is installed.

Windows 10 is roughly 20GB for the 64 bit version. Its not so much Windows that will fill it up but games. I have a 500GB and it filled up fast.

Depends on the game. Some with DLC can hit or exceed 100Gb.

get a 500 GB model if possible....(1 TB on sale?)

250 GB does not last as long as it once did!

You are ok for windows and a handful of games.

If you start to fill up, you can either get a larger ssd or you can add a hard drive.

Depends on whatever else you have in there.
A 250GB will work just fine if there are other drives in the system. For an only drive, no.

Figure 50GB min for the OS. This includes space for the semiannual updates, etc.
Another 10GB for whatever applications you use.

Games....some of them are approaching 100GB or more once you include DLC.
So either 20 games or 1 game...:lol:

For a 250GB drive, don't let it fill up over 200GB.
