Hi. I use ISTA/D for my E series so I can't do any programming with it, the same for ISTA/P
What can I delete from the folders to slim things down a bit?

Thanks.

You can delete PSDZ from both if you don't work on F or G series. ISTA-D will still be roughly 30GB without programming files, and ISTA-P will be something like 65GB. New versions of ISTA-P (since 3.65 iirc) no longer contain the PSDZ needed for F or G series. Not much trimming to be done based on the file structure. Most of ISTA-D is in large database files that can't be slimmed. If you poke through ISTA-P, most of the space is used for ECU data. I suppose you could chop out the chassis folders that you don't use.

Personally I opted to get a 1TB M.2 SSD and put aside all concerns about storage.

Thanks. I do have a 1tb NVMe drive in my laptop with a few hundred gb free but as I only use it on E series and my R55 mini so figured I may as well make some space next time I upgrade

You can write a script to eliminate the ECU data for models that are irrelevant, retaining only Motorrad data cuts it back to around 5-6 gb

Thanks but I wouldn't have a clue where to start

Scripts or batch files can be done in many ways, here is a simple sample batch file with all entries remarked out, remove the rem at the start of each line to remove the data you dont need, remove the .txt from the file name & run it in a DOS command line

There will be more models now than when it was written & you would need to amend it with the correct paths for where you have all the data on your system but it should assist you in understanding the process

Thanks, sorry for the delay in replying I never got an email to tell me, the script worked well thank you
