I re-ordered your question, and snipped the rest. Top posting makes it nearly
impossible to follow, respond sanely to a thread of any length.
In line posting is chronological, in the natural reading order, top to bottom.

above 90% disk capacity without noticing any speed issues, but it is very
file size and work load dependent. YMMV.
