This may be confusing but it's about checking storage

I have two games but I mainly play one every time which I own them. Sometimes when I finish playing, so would check how much data I've stored.

What's confusing is if I go to Manage Games and click on one to see my Saved Data and reserved but I see that it rose up to for example 130 MB but my reserved space is 4GB but my other game I save would carry 109. something MBs, my question is can saved
game data capacities like these make my Internal HDD full or it has no impact on my console?

P.S. I had done something to lower my saved data for the one game I normally play by stupidly choosing Clear local saves to see what it could do. I was afraid choosing that would remove all of my creations and settings I come up with. Luckily, one game
data still exist. But this morning, I opened up my second game and it couldn't sync properly. I've done 3 attempts to get my saves back for the other game and thank God I got them all back to normal.

But yes, the question is when checking your game data on Manage Games, do more than 100 MBs take up your Internal HDD or it doesn't affect it? I have two games and several apps installed. Have about 264 GBs, 27% used so just wondering if I'm good where
I'm at? Thanks, just needed help so I won't experience this again.

Great cause I play one game every often and then the other few times. From there to there, I create characters, balance gameplay on settings, change music, etc. I thought doing all these things mentioned could take up data. I had to delete some characters
I made or downloaded, pictures I uploaded or reset settings to default cause I thought that's what cause my data to increase lol. I did all of that just for that but did it for nothing. Thanks for the help.

if you are only at 27% used space then you are good, no need to worry. The more individual saves you create the more space they can take. Even if you use the same save slot it can grow a bit due to you getting further in the game. How much a space a
game save is up to the developer and what they are choosing to save to maintain your progress.

Hi there GAngeloRene

I think you are meaning xbox 360. The storage side of things will notify you and you can remove games that take to much space when needed. Each game does make it's own size of space for there saved game data this is made when you first load up the game.

I have XBOX One X. That's what I'm asking about.
