Re: How Much Hard Drive Space Are You Using?
Well, back when I was actually attending college full-time, I had a ...certain computer... with combined 4TB of storage space (a nasty web of directory-mapped partitions), and I think about 50GB or so free, but now, since I didn't have a use for that computer, and it's drives all got wiped...but that's another story... I have sworn to myself that I'll never again buy a hard drive smaller than 1TB, and never again will I have that much storage space without RAID5. I haven't started that build yet though, so atm I'm at:
1.5TB external with 58GB free (Rainbow Tables)
1.5TB internal with 403GB free (assorted)
500GB internal with 224GB free (OS/apps/etc) (will shortly be replaced by 2x60GB Vertex's in RAID0, hopefully tomorrow)
EDIT:
As a side note, does anyone have experience using WD EADS drives in RAID5?
Re: How Much Hard Drive Space Are You Using?
Main Computer:
1 - WD 160 Gb (boot, windows) - 20 to 40 Gb free
2 - Seagate 500 Gb (storage) - 40 Gb free
3 - Seagate 1.5 Tb (storage) - 170 Gb free
and no pr0n!!!

well right now i was downgraded to 20gbs for 6 week:dead::hurt::mad::twisted::facepalm::evil:
this is my hard drive Maxtor Fireball 3 20GB harddive ATA133 5400RPM 2MB Cache Hard Drive from a seagate Barracuda 7200.11 SATA 3Gb/s 1-TB Hard Drive 32mb cache
Re: How Much Hard Drive Space Are You Using?
Near 5.5 TB, and no pr0n.
Lots of that is CAD work or graphics arts, but we also back up all our movies in case of scratches-that's legit still, cause they're not on the network-and because the HTPC I'm designing is optical-free (most of my builds are headless these days) so I have copies of almost everything hosted somewhere.
Next move will be a networked LaCie Bigger Disk. Thinking 2.5TB.

All the ones put out by freerainbowtables.org, and the Church of WiFi's WPA tables. I got them all got a project I was working on at work, but have yet to actually use them much :facepalm: I had about 60% of my shared 10/2 FiOS line dedicated to the RT downloads, for about a month... But hey, on the other hand, now I have them :p I'm thinking of setting up a mirror for them once I get my own place and a 20/20 line. Also, once I get my fileserver up and running, I'm gonna be transferring all the tables onto that, pulling the 1.5TB into it, and throwing some other drive into that...honestly, how often do I need 1.5TB in a portable drive (well, except for those times I want more :P ).
Re: How Much Hard Drive Space Are You Using?
2.56TB free of 5.25TB altogether
Re: How Much Hard Drive Space Are You Using?
i have a 640 gb hdd, and in down to my last 60gbs free.
i need to build a htpc, cause 450gbs of it are videos.
Re: How Much Hard Drive Space Are You Using?
I have about 2tb worth of backed up photos, and important stuff and another 650gb or so worth of stuff on my file server which is also backed up on my gaming pc. So I have about 4tb in total. 2 are on external drives.
