One way to transfer data from SQL Server to Postgres is to cinfigure a linked server between the databases and use that to insert data from SQL Server to Postgre. More info, see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms188279.aspx[^]

Another thing is that SQL Server 2008 Express has a size limitation of 10GB so upgrading the database engine would also give you more space. Refer to: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc645993.aspx[^]
