iMac space question

[perlsyntax]

I just got a new iMac 5k with 2tb and i got Xcode 7 install and my question will i have a lot of space for android studio and android tools on the 2tb without slow down?

Is long is you keep around 5-10% free space on the drive you should be fine. So keep 100-200GB of space free if you want to avoid slow downs.

How much does it normally use? It will use the exact same space on a Fusion Drive as anywhere else.

From what I can see you are using 76.2GB of storage, which means you have 2,000GB + 128GB - 76.2GB = 2,051.8GB left on your iMac. But I am not sure that I understand what you are asking?

Looks like it uses 400MB of space. That will still leave you a ton of free space and you will have no issues.
