Q: Is the Windows 95 "Drive Space 3" a useful option to invoke?  Are there any reasons one should not compress their hard drive? 

A: The advantage to Drive Space or any drive compression utility is that you can increase your hard drive space for programs and files.  However, there are two major disadvantages to doing this:
  1. Compression slows down your hard drive, therefore a computer system drastically.
  2. There's a distinct risk that you could one day lose everything on your hard drive.  Compression utilities use hidden files to keep track on how the hard drive is configured.  It would be disastrous If anything should ever happen to these files.
