How Much Hard Drive Space Do You Have ?

[Wayne Luke]

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.

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
