Does having 25GB free of 287GB slow my comp down?
130GB of it being movies, and I want to know if getting rid of my movies would make my computer smoother, thanks!

Not speaking from tons of experience, but the only thing that should slow down your computer is fragmetation. Just having a lot of porn movies on your HD shouldn't do anything, but it is always a good thing to do some cleanup now and again.
My signature was too long so I got this pretty rainbow here instead now. Isn't it nice? This is a nice rainbow.

There is an option to reformat your PC aswell but that would mean starting from nothing. All your data is gone. Google for more info and instructions.

Not really. For things such as games they're given the exact directory. They're literally guided to where everything is.

Usually having a lot of separate files slows down boot up but that's it.

Alrights, then I guess I should get a storage device to save the movies cause they're all precious.

Thanks to everyone who posted!
