Currently there are 2 main partitions, \kbox and \kbackup.

When patches, software or other items fill the disk the system stops working correctly. The OS and downloadable content should be on separate partitions to prevent this from happening.

You can even assign a specific size for each area. I.E.
\Kbox - basic OS
\kbakcup - backups
\Software - 100 GB for Software installations
\Patches - 100 GB for Patches

Thus when we fill up patches, everything else will still work. Then we can work on freeing space for patches.

This would also help in the request for more feedback on what is using up space.

Taking it even further, allow amount of space to be adjustable. Thus if I do not use patches I can give more space to Software.
