Fire 10" OS ...Space
How much space on your HD does the OS take up? After this new update mine OS takes up 17 GIG!!!

How did you come up with 17 Gb for the OS? If that were true the 16 Gb tablets would NOT be able to run the new OS.

I have a 32 Gb Fire HD10 that was updated to the most current OS. Going to Settings- Storage- Internal Storage- I find System=2.20 Gb.

You have had so many problems with your HD10 I wonder if you have a defective unit.
Movies download kinda slow for me maybe taking 45 minutes but not hours or days. Then latest update was automatic for me and I got the notice about books and other stuff now downloading to the SD card if one is inserted. Maybe you need to talk to Amazon about your HD10.

If I am wrong about your finding a 17Gb OS could you tell me how you did it so I can learn how to do it correctly.
