    Toon, 17 Jan 2013The numbers just not added up. C-drive = 512 MB. Total used = 85 MB (sis) + 83 MB (other files... more....On 2nd thought. It might be correct. If C-drive is ROM, thus used space are not recoverable. That's why 262MB used by S3 and anna made redundant. Please concur anyone. Regards.

Total used = 85 MB (sis) + 83 MB (other files)+ 2 MB (all others)= 170MB. Thus balanced C should be 512-170 = 342 MB, not 80 MB which is the case now. 262 MB unaccountable for. How? Did I get it wrong? C-drive is not RAM right?

But my many folders are empty, the rest are with KB of contents only. I am not a Apps guy, thats why I also use N9(no SIM in it), Ha. Back to N8, there are only 6 apps that is non-stock (swype, bettery Monitor, skype, units converter,screen light) and they are all in Mass-drive. Also, there are another 52M of update/grade such as colorizit, MS apps, social, ovi store etc. which I refrain download. Just as David did, quick scan on C-drive shows two big folders, 86M sis apps and 83M of others files the rest are in KB. Going thru the installed apps list, Quick-office (11MB) + MS Communicator (3MB) are two "big" apps in C-drive. About X-plore, obtain from Nokia-store? Might need to clear some cache. Regards.

If you would really have .sis kit's in it, you would have known about them and where they are placed, cause mostly, you have to put them there so this files to be there. If you downloaded from nokia store the install kit will delete after the instalation is done. Now, the sis aplications that ocupy your memory are the ones that are very useful. Maps and all what this app includes are taking allot of space in c. Photo and video editors. Adobe reader and quick office. This apps are the most memory eaters in your c drive. Your mem is in parameters of nokia n8 but you can try to see if you have some unecessary files in c drive, if you don't like the way it is. Search your c drive for folders like: download or received files or installs. If you have something in this folders, move it to mass mem. You will ned to have x-plore to better handle this process. Also you can delete opera cache and original browser cache. Path with x-plore: c:/system/ now delete cache folder and dmgr folder. Now enter c:/system/data/operaMobile/ delete: application_cache, cache and cacheOp folders. See if you released some memory. You can also uninstall some apps and install them back in mass memory. Also, note to remember. Everytime yoi install an app, no matter where, some files will be saved in your c drive. The many apps you have installed the more space is taken. Not a very significant space but... This is also for David...

                    Hello Carol, greetings. N8 is still my main cell after 2 years. However, I am starting to worry about C drive available space of only 80M. It was 159M before Belle-refresh. How can we delete or move .sis files after installation? There are 86M in C drive. Read somewhere .sis are not needed after apps are installed. Regards.
