SBS 2003 drive running out of disk space..

[arnief]

In Dell's infinite wisdom, they only offered a 25 gb partition for the O.S. Well that is now full and need to make more room. I was able to move the swap to the data drive but that only gave me 2 gigs, any suggestions on how to manage this situation?

Where do the Exchange databases live?

Ditto the user's home drives and shared areas

They all live on C: however Exchange is not in use and users folders are small. I discovered my problem, there was 8 gigs of log files in windows/system32/logs/w3svc1 directory. I moved the files to Data drive and I recovered 8 gigs of space.

Use an app like

to determine which files are too large and try to relocate those to the data drive.

I had the same problem, I ended up moving exchange log to other partition, moved GFI datbase to other partition, exchange store was already on the other partition. now c drive usage does not grow rapidly as it was before.
My C drive came as 13GB to begin with.
