Local AI image/video user deletes 3.2TB of old models, keeps almost nothing
legarth · reddit · 2026-09-07
A ComfyUI user, running out of SSD space, deleted 3.2TB of models accumulated over four years, keeping only Ideogram 4, LTX 2.5, Z-image, plus tools like SAM and VibeVoice. With Krea 2 and MiniMax H3 available, they found they never went back to anything between SD1.4 and LTX 2.3 — the 'nostalgia generation' they expected never happened. Even the SDXL folder is gone. The thread debates whether keeping old model checkpoints is worth it.
