Hi,

Yes that is correct. You have to keep in mind that you downloading an image of installation (which will take the disk space) than this have to be mounted and updated (so copied on Your drive). This usually takes a little more than 2 times the image size. Of course after update You’ll recover lot of apace by deleting image.

hope that helps

Simon
