It's good to check this folder periodically, as some DAWs store files there and it can get quite filled up, size-wise.

Some DAWs require files to stay there if you will use them in a project later. Others do not, such as Cakewalk by Bandlab, that stores any needed audio in its own project folders. So, you should check whether your DAW requires files to remain in the Drag 'n Drop folder.
