If your not using a dynamic drive it will use the full 250gb which is around 230gb after NTFS file system most likely. Next time chose a dynamic drive so it only uses what it uses, instead of reserving the full amount. That's my guess.

use a server OS for the server files and not such **** like windows xp.
will certainly help!
else use my vm hdd file.everything in there already.

Im not sure since its a virtual machine. You might have to edit the storage settings under vmware settings. I would check and see what kind of storage the virtual machine is using first.
