hi, not knowing a lot about how my computer works or more specifically, knowing if my computer has enough “room” to install SD3 when it arrives. i believe the capability of my computer is part of my toontrack profile.
may i ask someone who knows about such things take a look at what i have and advise me on what, if anything i should do to prepare my machine for SD3.
what i mean is, are there ways to free up space (if i need to).
i hope this makes sense.
thanks so much

I couldn’t find any information on your host/computer in your profile.
What kind of system do you have.PC/MAC?
What amount of RAM do you have?
What operating system are you running?
Size of your internal hard disk?
Do you have any external disks?
Do you have a spare USB port? There is an option with SD3 to have the samples delivered on an SSD (Solid State Drive) which will connect to your host.
Mac Studio M1 Max, RAM 64 GB, 1TB Drive, OSX 12.x/13.x and Windows 10 (VM)

OWC Thunderbay Mini (4 X 1TB Sata SSD), Express 4M2 (4 X 2TB M.2 SSD), Envoy Express (1TB M.2 SSD)

The processor and RAM look fine. Still have no idea what hard drives you have so can’t comment if you have enough free space to install.

hi Scott, thanks for helping me with this. i don’t know what i’m worried about this is a pretty good computer and i have no trouble with sonar or any of the loads of toontrack stuff i have. also, i assume i will uninstall SDX and EZdrummer when i install SD3.
anyway, i have attached what i think will tell you what you need. if not please tell me where to find the information we need.
again, thank you for taking the time to help me.

It would appear that your C drive had enough space to install the entire 290GB S3 library of you so choose. You can also choose to install a smaller, lighter version.
