If you are buying a Microsoft Surface Pro<\/a> from 9th February 2013, I suggest that you buy the highest capacity available. Based on a report from Softpedia<\/a>, the unofficial space that Surface Pro will take up is around 45GB.<\/p>\n

\"microsoft-surface-pro-availability\"<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

That means that if you were to buy a 64GB Microsoft Surface Pro, the remaining storage is just 19GB. That is, in my opinion, pathetic. And if you buy a 128GB version, you are left with 83GB of usable storage.<\/p>\n

Softpedia got this information from Microsoft based on questions that they had asked.<\/p>\n

The company, however, told us in a statement that the 128 GB version of the Surface with Windows 8 Pro offers users 83 GB of available space, which means that the operating system and the pre-installed software eat up approximately 45 GB.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So, I suggest that you read the storage FAQ<\/a> first before you buy the Microsoft Surface Pro when it is launched.<\/p>\n
