How Much Space Does Steam Take?
Steam itself is pretty lightweight, usually needing about 1GB of space for the installation. But remember, that's just the client. The games you download will need a lot more space, and that can quickly run into hundreds of GBs depending on your library!

1GB for Steam, but the games are the real space hogs. Choose wisely or invest in storage!
Barely anything, really. Steam's install is around 1GB, but the real estate your games take up is the main concern. Got a big library? Better get a bigger hard drive.
Only the Steam client? About 1GB. But add a couple of games, and suddenly you're playing Tetris with your hard drive space.
