If you're already filling that up, an extra 128 GB isn't going to take you far. Highly recommend you leave the OS drive strictly for the OS and find a way to get more storage or start transcoding your media to a more suitable format.

    I thought I would never fill up my drives and now I'm at 17.5/18 TB with two new 14 TB drives going in soon. I wouldn't mess with using your very small SSD for media storage for a number of reasons, most of all because a 128 GB OS space could easily fill up and put you in a tough spot.

    in the end I will buy an enclosure/HDD dual bay that allows me to put 2 HDD's in it, which goes via USB 3.0 to my server, which is quite convenient and does not slow down the reading/writing of files at all.
    thanks anyway for the suggestion and the recommendation.
