Get a bigger hard drive.

1 pair history ~ 3 GB, if 10 pairs ~ 10 X 3GB = 30GB, are this practical?

Of course,  why not ?  1TB drives are inexpensive,  there are 4TB drives available . . . even in a laptop a 500GB drive is not expensive any longer.

Seems to me it's not normal to have such a size for 2013.hcc. Can you try to delete it and load data for 2013 again, then see the size of this file ?

2013.hcc file only deleted by shutdown/exit the terminal (i think this 2013.hcc file is dynamic file). I already deleted and restart the terminal. The size is reducing but vary between brokers.
