I am a noob in data hoarding and have been managing with two HDDs with 1TB each.

.

I have some few YouTube videos and some photos I downloaded from twitter and reddit which is about 140GB (138GB to be precise). I don’t actually use them, but I also don’t feel like deleting them either.

So I am planning to compress it to the max like at least make it less than 100GB and store it in an old 256GB HDD.

I tried compressing the files using WinRaR and 7z, but the file size was still around 130-132GB?

Is there any way to make it less than 100GB (preferably 80-90GB) ?
