You just want to increase your disk space and get back to work. Ok, it’s not actually like that, and there are a lot of boring reasons why this happens… but you don’t really care about those. That’s kind of like believing that as long as you have checks in your checkbook, you’ve still got money in the bank. You thought that as long as the Actual Size was smaller than the Virtual Size, that still meant you have room on the disk… but you’d be wrong. Here’s the scenario: you’ve set up Dynamically Allocated Storage for the hard drive on your Guest VM in VirtualBox and you’ve run out of space - even though your Actual Size is smaller than the Virtual Size (this happened to me recently when my Virtual Size was 10 GB, and the Actual Size was only 5.55 GB… but my Guest OS was complaining that I didn’t have enough disk space to do an update.)
