This. This exactly...also, all the stuff that I have on various other forms of media that it's just so much easier to rip to my server. I'll be honest, 90% of the stuff I have doesn't get used too often (ok, maybe more than that.....), but "I might need it!". :PQuote:

I am currently in the process of ripping all my DVD's to AVI's, full quality, so I can have easy access to them for my new WD TV unit. Each DVD rip is anywhere from 1.7GB-3GB depending how old they are and I have about 100 DVDs, so you do the math lol. Of course I have all of these backed up on a separate external HDD plus another one that is permanently connected to WD TV. It's just so much easier to buy more storage these days then worry about restrictions. I would now have close to 5TB of storage within my home but I probably only use 40% off all that, it's just better value to buy 1TB drives.
Heheh, yup. I remember the last time I deleted something because I thought I would never need it again... I kid you not, within 24 hours I had 4 people contact me looking for it. :facepalm: Never again!Quote:

I have now filled a 1TB drive with movies for WD TV. And am in the process of transferring those files to a 2TB drive and I have around about 300GB of games going on that 1TB drive. I also have all my data backed up on a 1TB drive which is about 75% full.
I have a lot of data between all my computers/drives (over a terabyte) plus a complete copy of everything on my 2TB external drive. Kinda surprised myself when I figure it out.
I have 250 Gb of HDD. But I have used just 11 to 12GB of it. The most part of this 12 Gb is filled with songs as I love music and music is the thing which I can not live without.
