Setup of WSUS 2016 downloads

Setting up a new WSUS 2016 Server and can't seem to figure out the correct items to select for autodownload/auto approve.

I'm quickly exceeding the 500 GB drive that I've assigned to the device.

Can someone please guide me as to the best practice here?

Thanks for your reply, Sean.

So what would be that beginning baseline policy you would set for Products/Classifications?

Deb, that's good advice to start with.  I'll begin with the OS and move out.

One follow up question.  If a machine is pointed at a WSUS server and that server doesn't have a specific update that the Workstation should install . . . will it go to MS download automatically, or will that Workstation never get the updates that you haven't provisioned within WSUS?

Thanks.
