How Much Hard Drive Space Do You Have ?
 

How much hard drive space do you guys have in your desktops ?

I have approximately 1890 GB spread across 4 drives.2 internal (500 + 320) and 2 external (750+320)

350 gig i think, that is all i need.

Too much :(

2x 600GB Internal
1x 2,0TB External (RAID1)
1x 500GB External

Using about 20% of it, so its kind of wasted :P

500 GB for my OSes, programs, etc.
1TB for the rest of my data.

Only 160 GB ..
I plan to buy more diskspace later :)

Total space

2 - 160 gig SATA drives
1 - 80 gig IDE drive
1 - 320 gig passport drive
1 - terabyte drive <--- this is a USB external drive that my wife and I share. Its connected to her computer, and networked so I we both have our own folders on it. With the way things are going, I will probably get my own terabyte drive just for my computer.

My wife and I do a lot of digital photography. One of my 160 gigs drives is almost full of nothing but pictures and home videos. I might go out on a hiking or camping trip and take 4 - 6 gigs of pictures and videos in a single day. So between my wife and I we use a lot of storage space.

Why do you need 8TB+ in your desktop?

I have 500+120 GB

Some people, myself included, have an archiving habit. I archive literally everything. I archive previous OS installations, documents, music, pictures, game saves, program settings etc. It soon builds up in size :)

Altogether, I currently have about 2 terabytes. I need 3 or 4 more to archive my movies.

I remember when I got my first hard drive and thought "How am I ever going to fill up 20 megabytes with stuff?" Of course then your operating system can on a 1.44 MB floppy and you didn't need to install applications.

Not all on a single disk, or even the same computer, but I probably have about 1TB in my house, most of it network resources.

10tb altogether 8 of that is in me home server

500 GB for Mac OS X, 500 GB for Windows 7, and 2x 1 TB WD hard drives. Also have a WD MyBook external drive, but that's only used for Time Machine to create backups. So 3 TB of disk space :)

For my p0rn collection. I'm adding another 10TB for archiving the internet, I have the same bad habits as Dean. >)

Outside of the desktop I have 1TB of HDD space on the Nintendo Wii, 120gigs + 1TB for the Xbox 360, and lots of old HDDs lying around the house that are currently not in use.

You have a lot of bad habits Brad. One springs to mind ;)

I can pee in a cup now and pass. ;)

320GB primary hard drive, and a 500GB backup drive, which crapped out on me last month. I just bought a new 160GB drive which I have to install still, but it's favored for speed not storage. :)

Reminds me of very early 80's possibly late 70's

My parents bought me the top of the range BBC B with 32kb of memory and a tape recorder to save programs to, and load from.

I recall getting the hobbit game, and it taking 20 minutes of buzzes and whirrs to load up onto the bbc.

Some years later I gifted this to a disabled centre, who I later found out had trashed it upon receipt, because they will not use gifted electronics.

When I was about 28 yrs old, I spotted a bbc b 32kb in local paper, with disk drives. I just had to have it !

Still got it.

Oh how I miss the simplicity of B.A.S.I.C !!! ;)

Primary hard drive - 140GB ( with WinXP )
secondary HD - 30GB ( with Ubuntu )

This is enough for me, but of course I'd love to have more :P

I have a 1TB internal, a 750GB External and a 200GB backup drive

I do a lot of music work so i have

500gb main drive
1TB Second Drive (Music Singles)
1TB Third Drive (Audio Production)
250gb Fourth Drive (For everything else)

This does me for now and what i need it for.

I'm sporting 3 1TB harddrives (NAS) I do a lot of movie and photography work.

Inside I have 2x500GB (merged together in windows 7 for 1TB) and 2x75GB, one is for windows and applications, the other is for basically a swap drive and junk.

Between 2 laptops and an external driver, I have 450GB.

I forgot to add my tower though, which is another 200GB (650 total), so I selected the wrong one from the options.

On my main pc i have 1.5 tb , 1tb is for my mp3 archive rest is for windows. I also have 2 external hdd total of 500gb for backing up programs , games and i have a test server which is also used for storage , it has close to 1tb hdd

A----freakin----men...

Love the old school. I still have "Pong" which I can now play on my Granddaughter's cell phone...but not before I enlightened her to the "app". I still wonder (worry) about where we are going....

Currently, we have only 25 GB available. We're right now using about 14 GB for Hearts4Horses.Com.

Raptor 74Go (10 000 trs/min) (Windows + stock images)
Western Digital 160go (7200 trs/min) (download + music + Styles vB + other)
