How much storage space do you have?

Croc · 15th Sep 2007, 06:50

I've got 4x400GB (soon to be raid 5) and a 74GB Raptor

Woodstock · 15th Sep 2007, 06:56

470gb all up thou ive stolen space on mums pc, gonna order a 500gb soon

Mankz · 15th Sep 2007, 07:05

400Gb on this one

(2x 400 GB Maxtors running in RAID 1)

oaso · 15th Sep 2007, 07:06

320 GB + 40 GB + 13 GB

Breach · 15th Sep 2007, 07:38

I have 2x 160s + a 250gb on my gaming rig. Then 3x250gb in a RAID 5 on my backup server, which is about 500gb usuable.

DougEdey · 15th Sep 2007, 07:42

2x500 + 1x200 on my main rig
40GB on here

sk8ter646 · 15th Sep 2007, 08:11

hehe 10 x 500gb drives and a 200gb boot in my server

then theres 3 300gbs in my gaming pc
3 200gbs in the work pc
a 500gb in each media centre of which there are 3
and 2 80gbs in the laptops

total of 8.36 tb hehe

oasked · 15th Sep 2007, 08:12

Theoretically I have 320Gb + 200Gb + 80Gb + 80Gb = 680Gb on my main rig, but as you know that's actually less.

mannafig · 15th Sep 2007, 08:26

At the minute I have in my rig 5x250gb HDD but this will be up for a major upgrade soon

HellRazor · 15th Sep 2007, 08:32

My Desktop rig has 250+80+80.... and only 4 GB free...
though not for long, I think HL2:episode 2 is going to require I build a new gaming rig....

Mister_Tad · 15th Sep 2007, 08:52

8x250 + 74GB in main rig
750 + 400 in the htpc
4x320 in the server
100 in a laptop
60 in tuther laptop
320 3.5" external
60 2.5" external

I voted 1-5TB, but just adding that lot up, it appears I've voted incorrectly

edit: actually, depends on whether we're talking TB or TiB

Aankhen · 15th Sep 2007, 09:03

Desktop: 300 GB × 2 = 600 GB
Laptop: ~110 GB
External disks: 2 × 279 GB + 750 GB

Total: 600 + 110 + 558 + 750 = 2,018 GB

Oops. Looks like I don't fit in the 400 GB–1 TB category after all.

BioSniper · 15th Sep 2007, 09:06

400 and something gigamabytes for me.

Sh0ckwave · 15th Sep 2007, 09:10

At least 2TB spread over about 8 computers in the house.

fwalm · 15th Sep 2007, 09:20

Hmm, I need more space, at the moment only got a 160gb in my computer which is practically gone while trying to save space plus my 250gb WD external which is full, getting 2 500gb hd's so at moment only got 390gb.

LinMan · 15th Sep 2007, 09:25

Laitainion · 15th Sep 2007, 09:42

I've got 320gig in my main system (2x160 in RAID 0) plus 80gig in each of the family machines as well as a couple of spare 80gig SATA drives. Most of my storage though is in a file server, a 40gig for the OS plus 5x320gigs in RAID 3 (using the XFX revo thingyme).

That makes about 1.8TB not including the discs not in use, and the 320gig lost in a RAID 3.

woodshop · 15th Sep 2007, 09:45

120GB in the MBP
80GB in the Tower.
also included the 500GB Lacie NAS drive in my total
