I'm not sure what resources you have available, so it's hard to know what to suggest. The best solution would be to reinstall the OS. Since you now have a better understanding of things, you can make better choices. And while you're reinstalling, upgrading the HD would be a good idea.

Sometimes we can't go with the best solution. Can you move the save directories into another filesystem and symlink them back? Can you hold off for a while? If you can't afford the reinstall, be aware that deleting the save directories will force you in that direction if anything goes wrong. While they exist, you have a shot at a patchrm. Without them, patchrm will fail. At the very least, I would test as much as possible before removing them. And can you save a copy on tape or something? That would leave you some options.
