Thanks for the suggestions, guys.
What it turned out to be was C:\windows\CSC was full of junk, eventhough
viewing Offline Files returned nothing. Somebody had synchronized then
disabled, and it kept the client side cache. That's what Microsoft has
dubbed a "Super-hidden-file", but there's a reghack to show them. I
noticed it when VirusScan was seemingly hung in the C:\windows\csc\
directory for a half hour... so it does scan them.

Also, check the size you have set for the page file on that drive and
add
that into your calculations.
