Somebody likes their bible music ;)

This is the partition where the GIS data is stored on my work computer. There's another 2 partitions for Windows and Programs. It's a 160gb drive.

What is that, 4 250GB hard drives?

Anyway, here's mine:
Drive D is two 120GB drives in RAID 0, setup November/December 03.

That would be my guess, but I've never seen the server. I think it's a mile or two away at the main part of the facility, actually.

How much Bible music does one man need? I get by with only 120gb at home, and half of that is music (I rip everything high quality). Another 1/4 is windows & programs, with 1/4 free. Unless I started recording TV with the tuner card, I don't think I could have a need for another 100 or 200 gb.

I've got 480 GB of hard drive space with over 30 partitions....I'm not going to subject you guys to 30 screenies.

lol...480 GB of hard drive space....there USED to be a time where that seemed like quite a lot. I'm feeling hard drive envy...time to go buy more space for my ego.

;D

Gargoyle
15 Apr 2005, 7:41pm
30 partitions? Do they all have drive letters? I've always wondered what happens when A-Z are used up.

danball1976
15 Apr 2005, 7:44pm
It probably goes to AA, AB, AC, but I don't think Windows supports anything higher than Z. Maybe those partitions are the total on multiple computers.

primesuspect
15 Apr 2005, 8:37pm
You can only have 26 drive letters. If you are seriously that depraved (what is WRONG with canadians? ;D) then you probably mount each partition in a folder instead of to a drive letter.

Heh, I was trying to get My Computer to display the way I wanted it to, and I happened accross this arrangement. I don't know, something about seeing "Huge" and "Gigantic" just cracks me up. Although I wish there was a seperate rating for drives over 1 TB. Maybe something like "OMG it's teh BIGGEST!!!11!!"

There's still one more but its not connected to the net. If it was and I posted the properties you'd all laugh.

I need a new harddrive. I never thought I'd fill it up, guess its possible after ripping all my CDs and having 4 backups of other computers on here ;D

Its all because of that damn BitTorrent. It eats up hard drive space faster than a bum on a bologna sammich.

sfleuriet

haha i have a folder with all my torrent files, install files, and setup files in it- its only 16gb, and has over 500 files in it.

wut browser? wut are ur specs?

Camman
26 May 2005, 4:13am
IE6. It just seemed strange that I tried accessing that page like 4 or 5 times just to see if that was it and yup, it kept crashing.

entropy
26 May 2005, 4:26am
Wonder if it's Leishi (I think I spelled that wrong...) or Armo's sig. Or both.

I need another hard drive. I've eaten an entire 120 gig with almost all music :(

To repeat: Damn that BitTorrent. Damn, damn, damn you and your addictive/awesome qualities. And damn the excellent music sites. You blow.

Dog porn? :scratch: So that's what you need all the HD space for? :D

Anyway, I just got a 250gb Seagate SATA drive (with NCQ - although I can't use it with my controller). I could have got a 300 or 350 for the same price, but that would have been PATA, probably. This drive is fast and dead silent, and has gotten great reviews. Highly recommended.

airbornflght
26 Jun 2005, 4:49am
Whats the NCQ for anyway, I know it stands for native command Queing, but whats it acutally do?

Nomad
26 Jun 2005, 6:07am
The structure of data on the harddrive, FAT types are older and NTFS is pretty much the way to go now. I can't think of the circumstances you'd want FAT32 unless it was an older system.
