Thought that this could be an interesting poll.

I have not seen this poll on the SM Forums.

EDIT: I have 210GB myself.

EDIT EDIT:
Wait, do you mean in one machine, or in all your machines combined?
Umm good question I do not know, make your own decision.

    663.4 GB here.

    Mostly for video editing storage, digital music and *cough* appli-warez-cations *cough* ;)

    //Edit: That's only 1 system. ;)


    663.4 + 80 + 80 + 67.2 = 890.6 GB (WAY TOO DAMN MUCH) :)

    I've got two 40s and an 80. 40s in RAID for my apps. The 80 running windows and storing about 35gb of multimedia files (burned most of the video to cds and dvds).

    276 in my P4 system, about 450gb in my amd system and another 400gb in my server.

    I have no clue about what's on half them.

    2 x 18 SCSI RAID 0 (Upgrading to 4 x 18 SCSI)
    2 x 9 SCSI RAID 0
    260 GB IDE (3 x 60 & 1 x 80)

    In various states of bits and pieces strewn all over the place. :)

    Wait, do you mean in one machine, or in all your machines combined?

    BTW, I have 80 on this machine. Do I vote for 0-80, or 80-160?

    Regardless of whether it's combined or in one machine, I'd still have to vote for 500-1000GB, which I did :D

    Dual 2500s- 4x 160GB DMax 9s (640GB)
    1800/NF7- 2x 80GB DMax 9s (160GB)
    1.3 Celeron "Print Server" - 1 80GB DMax 9
    Laptop- 40GB

    plus a 60GB DMax 9 in a firewire enclosure.

    So, I've got 980GB available right now, plus another 60GB of SCSI drives in my junk drawer if I need them, and I may toss another DMax 9 into the print server...

    I'm almost bringing up the rear with my 20 GB Seagate Barracuda drive, which came stock in my Dell 2100 desktop in December 2001.

    I'd get a bigger hard drive and put it in RAID 1 for data backup mirroring, but I really want and need a whole new system. P4, 2 GB SDRAM, etc.

    I have about 20 CD's full of stuff that can't stay on the hard drive because of space. Like all 3 seasons plus the pilot movie of the "Trailer Park Boys", downloaded from Kazaa, and all the high and low rate Webshows from my website. See below for more information on that.

    Some people are pretty close to 1 Terabyte. I wonder how long it'll be before having at least a TB is considered standard.

    one box has a pair of 40's
    another has a 12.6
    another has a 3.2
    another has a 120 + 60
    The two small ones are dedicated folders.
    I have no idea what is in my lappy

    I've got 120GB (80+40) in main rig, 40GB on web server, and a whopping 1.6GB on SM4.

    Poll fixed to get rid of overlapping.

    Technically, I own:

    40 in my wife's laptop
    98.3 in my kid's computer (2x40 IDE and 1x 18.3 gb SCSI)
    120 in my video server
    60 in my office desktop

    If you count the servers and stuff owned by my company, I have probably another terabyte in various drives and such scattered throughout the company.

    Rig #1: 160GB + 80GB + 80GB = 320GB
    Rig #2: 30GB + 80GB + 80GB = 190GB
    Rig #3-#8 Total of about 150GB

    Grand Total: 660GB

    (This does not include two brand new 46GB IBM DeathStar drives from RMA that I don't trust enough to use, plus other various little bitty drives in a box somewhere, 4-10 GB each).

    I use rigs #1 & #2 all the time, so I feel justified in claiming the 500GB+ category. The other comps are Folders, a crummy laptop, and a couple of mp3 terminals.

    I have two hard drives,

    C:\ which is 60GB (or 55.9GB actual)
    D:\ which is 120GB (or 114GB actual)

    So I have 180GB (or 169.9GB total)

    I might have to buy a bigger hard drive again if I want to download the complete series of Inu Yasha, its close to 127 episodes released so far.

    Notice - he says he doesn't save porn. No mention as to whether he views it.
    :vimp:

    (PS: It doesn't take up all that much room, unless you have a lot of high-res images. Don't ask me how I know that...) :p

    Main Desktop has 72 GB (2 WD 36 GB RAPTORS in RAID 0) and 800 GB ( 4 WD 200GB JBs in RAID 1+0) for a total of 872 GB, but only about 472 GB is usable. And then another 6 GB in the wife's laptop!

    30mins of some good quality divx is like 70-120mb. Full length high quality is over 1GB.
