Uncompressed stuff takes more resources, but it is faster. Compressed stuff takes less resources (in this case, less disk space), but is slower. Yes, it can slow your computer down. If something is compressed, your computer has to uncompress it for use. If everything on your HDD is compressed, it might be noticeable.


Before I said it was going to take 10 hours,
Well, I did it for alittle bit, about half an hour, and before I even did it, I had 45gb of free space.
After 30 minutes of compressing, I have 51 Gb.
I wonder what the other 10 hours would have done to my HDD
