    4x 1TB drives, just over 300GB free over all of them.

    EDIT: I just found out that I'll be getting another 500GB drive when my father upgrades his server to a single 1TB drive.

    New drive, WD Caviar Green 1TB (EADS): Seven gigs used out of 930 total. Now that it's made it a couple weeks I'm gonna start backing stuff up to it.

    I was a little nervous about the idea of green caviar, but it's proven itself so far.

    I think the main killer of space is video editing. You can have 30 minutes of raw video taking up a good 40gigs of space.

    Hell, even some MMO's nowadays are 30gigs by themselves. Age of Conan is taking up 29gigs with 5500 files. Pirates of the Burning Sea is just as bad although I don't have it installed at the moment.

    On my laptop I'm currently using 126gigs on my main and a whopping 47gigs on my slave :oP Probably another 200gigs on my external. Hard to say because I haven't had it connected in a long while.

    Yeah I know what you mean Buzz. Taking a 30second vid in FRAPS at full res and 70FPS is around 950MB, that's a big file for 30secs for video.
