WSUS Configuration: Don't save updates locally - Question about Space

I have a WSUS server with disk space problems.

It is saving locally the updates, but I've changed the configuration in
order to not save locally the updates, telling my clients to download
from Microsoft Update.

I've noticed that WSUS doesn't delete the files saved in the disk
(folder Wsuscontent)... ¿can I delete the content of folder Wsuscontent
or can I make some trouble?

I think the info needed from WSUS to work must be only in SQL Server
from now, and the files that remain in folders can be deleted, doesn't it?

Thanks

Sigh. And from MUC. (Apparent multi-poster.)
