I've been having a problem lately with the Windows Media Center I use for my main TV. I'm still running Media Center on Vista and I have a 750GB drive in the box that only has about 200GB of real content on it, but even though it should have around 500GB free, its only reporting 10-20GB free.\\r\\n\\r\\nMy suspicion is that the Windows Home Server integration might be at fault. I recently upgraded my Home Server with Power Pack 3 and it has a cool new feature that integrates with Media Center and can automatically archive data to the larger disks on the server. The Home Server has always been a bit strange about how much free space it reports- despite ~7TB of real free space, the system disk I have is fairly small and I think that causes it to report only a small amount of free space. Now that the C: drive on my Media Center is doing the same thing it makes me suspect that the Home Server is doing something fancy with the disks and causing this problem.\\r\\n\\r\\nAnyone have any ideas? The Home Server tie might be a total red herring...\\r\\n\\r\\n
