not enough disc space for apps? Does anyone know how to switch this?

The R101 has 4 kinds of memory Ram (256M; apps run in this), internal nand flash (256M; this is where the actual os & apps are installed), internal microSDcard (2-4G depending on model, this mainly used by the OS & and apps for data storage) an lastly the external SD slot (up to 32G; this can be used to transfer media files/apps you have downloaded from you PC and also used to install OS updates). Some apps won't run because there is simply not enough free nand flash left over after the OS & your installed apps are accounted for. If you want to see how much free nand you have go to Settings, SD Card & Device Storgage and see the last entry (Available space). Mine has 10.29MB. You can work around the limitation in several ways. Velocity provides a way of uninstalling some of the Pre-installed apps. It saves a copy to your PC Desktop if you want/need to reinstall. Also, apps take very little time to install/uninstall. Use Astro to save a backup copy of the apps you have installed but aren't currently using (it saves it to the backups/app folder on the internal SDcard) and then uninstall the app(s). If you then have a need for the app, you can uninstall something else & reinstall what you need. Hope this helps.

Yes. might want a larger drive though, as most operating systems will want more space.

Hi. Do you know if you can add hard drive space? Like attach an external hard drive for more space?

It's 8GB storage with about 5GB usable (factory apps etc take up the rest). I have a ton of apps installed for both work and play and still have over 3GB left. Also it does take SD cards, I have an additional 8GB SD in mine.

put the blank disc into the drive. right click on the drive's icon. Then left click on "Properties". this should then display the total disc space, and also how much, if any, is not available due to formatting allocation etc. or, just try to copy an 8.15 gb file to the dvd-dl blank disc and see what the heck happens. worst case, you make a coaster out of it, best case it accepts it all. good luck!

Run something like CCleaner or other disk cleaning defragging software to delete files you don't even realize you have. Delete unused files, pics, etc. that you don't need anymore. There are no add-ons to increase your space unless you want to add another physical disk.

To free up space on your tablet, Go to the settings app. It should be at the bottom of your start page. It's a square with 3 sliders in it. Once there click on apps personal and delete any unused apps.Just click on app and click delete.Good Luck.

The total storage space may not be exactly 64gb, but there are no additional programs on the USB. Besides, a quick format will get rid of anything on there.

Yes, I have not used it but when I install a CD it indicates space is available. Also is a lightscribe.

Everything sounds normal the OS takes some space, and any installed apps and extensions . Also a number of files are cached like recently used Google Drive files, emails, etc. In your browser visit chrome://quota-internals/ you can see your full OS space used and available.

You can use any size, but some space will be reserved for system stuf and your os, so for examle if you install w7 on 128gb ssd after all updates you will have about 100gb free or less depending what programa you installed. Ad if you enable Ower-provisioning that would cast you again 10% of disk size.

I put my media on micro sd cards which are pretty crazy cheap now. The unaccounted for space is in system partitions.

Hey Matt I have used up to 16 gb so far with no problems. I bet you could use any size, as operationally its not different software so good luck! Hope it helps!

You should look on Youtube for instructions on how to install Google Play or the play store. I've been using mine with no problem, excepts that it wont install the largest apps (1MB or more)

You'll loose some space to formatting. For instance it may only be 105GB instead of the 120GB.
