How to increase the hard disk capacity of a laptop?
I would not recommend this but you can right click on the hard drive, click Properties, and check “Compress drive to save disk spaces”. The process took a long time and some error may occur which result in data looses. What it does is the process compress every file in the disk in to smaller size, not expending the hard drive. The amount of space you save depends on the files you’re storing. Image, music, or video files will not compress down so you won’t really be saving any space. It might also slow your computer down. I would recommend you to buy an external hard drive.
