i'm starting up a new machine and transferring SC to the new PC. During the process i noticed my Data file/folder in SC was pretty large - 99.5 GB.

Since i'm running Sierra on my C drive (and i'd like to leave it there), it's probably time for me to start looking at managing the size of that data file.

I'm looking for suggestions as to how to best manage the size of that file, or could you please point me to the articles I need to review to make that decision.
