As an example my C and D are on one hard drive with all
user data on D
and all my backups and mass storage are on G and H which is another hard drive

OH by the way i had the same problem before and had Visita as a OS and couldnt slove the problem so i wiped the HDD clean and installed OS 7 to resolved the problem. But it happened again. The issue is its the same HDD and anount of GB so i cant tell if its something else. I am going to conduct a experiment and installl a bigger HDD and see if the HDD gets filled again with the same parameters. Or everything with be the same. Is it possible to had a virus that hijackes your physical HDD space or a program that replicates files to fill up the capicity of your HDD ?

It is certainly possible, but highly unlikely. Malware and ad-ware do it, but seldom is it a virus attack.
