      How much disk space is required for an install of PFsense and a few options / squid / squid guard / bandwidthd  is a 64 GB SSD sufficient my last install was on a 128 GB SSD and I am setting up a new system not sure if 128 is overkill.

      I ran  on my 128 GB pfsense system

      df -i

      $ df -i
      Filesystem  512-blocks    Used    Avail Capacity iused    ifree %iused  Mounted on
      /dev/ad4s1a  210808812 1364872 192579236    1%  41191 13595415    0%  /
      devfs                2      2        0  100%      0        0  100%  /dev
      /dev/md0          7388      88      6712    1%      27      739    4%  /var/run
      /dev/md10      1591324      12  1464008    0%      3  117755    0%  /var/tmp/havpRAM

      Does this mean I'm only using 1% of my 128 SSD?

      thanks you,

        Add an h to your options or just use "df -h" and it will be much easier to read/understand.
