How big is a Windows 7/8 Install?

He is on a bit of a budget so I will tell him to either buy a 32GB windows SSD (At least) or get a smaller one, if his budget doesn't allow, and use it as a cache drive.

Thanks

Rather tell him to save up if he can't get a 60.

I don't really like the cache drive angle tbh.

Also...you can cheat a bit with link shell extension. I use it to split games over SSD and HDD. e.g. I only play MP on cod4...so I've got the MP maps on the SSD whilst the big data files are sitting on the hdd.
