So last night I decided to scan my music into XBMC I left it overnight as my music collection is quite large anyway when I woke checked the progress and it stopped at around the letter G I think because my XBMC filled up the cache to around 17gb making my SSD full is this normal and apart from buying a new hard drive is there something I else I can do about it?
Im running Eden aeon nox
win 7 x64

Use Frodo - it's far more efficient in this regard.

Excuse my ignorance but exactly is Frodo all I can think of is Lord of the Rings?

19GB is way, way too large. There could be some corrupt super-large files in there. Take a look at what is on there.

When I look in its just full of .mp3 files which I have to manually delete.

XBMC doesn't put .mp3 files anywhere. The only time it would do so would be if they had to be extracted from a compressed rar or zip for playback purposes.
Where are said mp3 files found and what are they named?
