    "According to Microsoft, using the Express Installation on a typical Windows 2000 Professional machine will be around 10MB "

    However, when I installed sp2, it used up over 300 MB of diskspace. I have 2 service pack folders I can see. One of them is the unistall data, and the other is a bunch of files.

    Can I safely delete anything?

    Thanks

    The uninstall data is just that, if you don't want to ever uninstall SP2, you can safely delete these files.
    It's safe to assume that if you haven't found a problem with SP2 within 1 week of use, then it is working fine in most cases.

    You could also delete the SP2 folder but that is maybe not such a good idea since you may need to re-apply SP2 if you do certain types of updates/upgrades.
