    Hi Guys

    Making space on my drives, I note my Komplete 13 Install folder is around 540Gb, I thought 800Gb was needed for a full install?

    Im wondering if I've installed correctly, or am I missing something?

    Cheers

    From NI web:
    • Total download size 575 GB. ........
    • .... To install all products and libraries, 800 GB free disk space is required.
    • Please note: The installation process may temporarily require up to 70 GB of additional free disk space on your system-drive – even if you're installing KOMPLETE on an external hard drive. This number significantly decreases for smaller products, or if products are being installed one by one.
    I do not know how much exactly K13U takes after installation, but it is probably around the value it has taken on your PC. So, your installation is most probably OK. NI is known that requires much more space for install than it is finally needed....

    Thanks for the input

    Thinking about this, is it likely that the samples are compressed while on drive? but uncompressed when, er.. in use? in software?!

    My only concern is that I could be missing out on a ton of samples! :D

    They are compressed on HDD.
