Post From: Data File Storage on Hard Disk

Since migrating to Denali data feed from broker provided data services and updating to the latest Sierra Charts app, it seems that I have been struggling with storage space. I have not built any new chartbooks, however the size of c:sierracharts\data is almost 100GB and growing.

It seems some of the scid files are over 1GB each, one of which is a EURGBP.scid - I don't even use this type of chart and never have.

I didn't realise I would need such a large HDD for Sierra.

This had temporarily stopped my trading charts from updating live data, however I know its not a data feed problem because the DOMs are working and time and sales are updating live.

Is there any method for managing my data storage in the short term (which files can I delete?) Obviously, getting a bigger HDD will solve this, but should my data file continue to grow?
