Thanks, Chris. And his suggestion was as you predicted, separate the
photo files and the backups.

I purchased a WD My Book external drive of 8TB, connected with USB 3,on sale at
Best Buy. With that in place, I moved all of the photo files that I will
likely access to a folder on that drive. Then I cleaned up my eSATA backup
drive and the C: drive. I now have plenty of space for large photo files,
system files and adequate space for system backups. Photo backups are done
periodically to bare hard drives.
The only lesson-learned in the process was this. If you decide to run the
Windows Disk Cleanup utility, DO NOT check the box to clean up Windows Updates.
That process failed, and it took 10 hours for the system to restore 2 years of
Windows Update files.
Here is the Systems Analyst at work, an image done to check out the new system:
