I have enabled WSUS on a SBS2003 server. It is working fine, but a large
number of update files are stored in the WSUS\WsusContent directory (over
16GB). I need the space, so can I delete them? How can I tell if they have
been installed?

Thanks in Advance

It's quit normal that the Drive fills up.

The guide seems to say that my only option is to get a bigger hard drive. Is
this correct or can I delete some files after they are installed. If no, why
not?
