It is unlikely that a few hundred ps of NVT would fill up someone's disk if
it 
has several hundred GB available, but it can't hurt to reduce the output a
bit. 
  Frequent writing could be taxing the filesystem unnecessarily.

It is also important to keep in mind that some desktop computers simply
cannot 
handle a simulation that would be best run on a cluster with
high-performance I/O.

hi justin,
i have already run simulations on this work station before also without any
such disk space problem. i am facing this problem now only after installing
ubuntu and gromacs freshly, 

best
