I'm on a 30GB drive... And yes, I use the 'uninstall' button very very often.

I guess size is just never enough for us... we just tend to get a bigger and bigger one everytime...
I'm having a WD 120GB and a maxtor 30GB at the moment...
My 120GB one is only about 30GB filled and my 30GB one is only half filled...
But for some unknown reason... even with so much space, I still tend to remove any game that i have finished playing with just to free up the space...

Must be some form of obsessive compulsive disorder that i have...

That is a lot of space! My 80GB has less than 10GB space.

Nope.

In fact, the transfer rate improves with increased areal density, which is generally seen on larger drives.
