Detailed explanation-1: -Windows 10 takes up about 10GB but it’s best to have 40GB of space ready for it, as any major updates require 30GB of space to properly install the needed files. Add on a couple of your favorite programs + gaming applications and you should at least look to get an SSD with storage space between 120GB-275GB.
Detailed explanation-2: -If you want a hard drive for general use, your safest bet is getting a 500GB – 1TB hard drive for storing files. That should be enough to cover most standard file storage needs. The price difference between a 500GB and 1TB is typically negligible, so I personally recommend going for a 1TB drive.
Detailed explanation-3: -According to Microsoft, the 32-bit (or x86) version of Windows 10 requires a total 16GB of free space, while the 64-bit version requires 20GB. (To see which version you’re running, open the Control Panel, click on System, then look under the “System type” label.)
Detailed explanation-4: -So the minimum space requirement for Windows 10 32-bit is 16GB, and Windows 64-bit is 32GB.
