Recommendation #1: Use Lite Tweaks. It's quite efficient and designed to keep you out of the CLI. Cleans package cache, removes old kernels, removes old packages, frees up system memory.
I don't have a single LL installation that uses over 8gig jfs on the disk, nor does anybody I know. My Debian 10 gnome system, which has everything but the kitchen sink installed on it, only has about a 40 to 50gig file system, dependent on how many VMs I'm running at the time. If you know you are going to save large amounts of media, setup a media storage partition separate from your system. How much memory are you allocating to Linux Lite? Are you specifying a certain amount of memory? When you do so installation automatically configures swap file accordingly. Have you been regularly compiling software on these systems? Have you had multiple failed or interrupted updates on either? Safe rule of thumb for Linux Lite, 21gig disk space, 3 to 4gig of memory and system should never be memory challenged or disk space challenged throughout the series release cycle.
