450GB right now. My 80GB pata music drive (65 gigs worth) will be replaced with a 3 or 400 gig drive soon though so I can move it to my htpc build.
 
what are you guys storing one ur rigs that suck up so much space?
60% of the stuff i have it just media (movies and tv shows) I have one 160 gb Raid 1 for stuff i want to make sure I save.
 
500+480+250(external HD) = 1230gb

Archives of graphic art including multiple textbook projects in excess of 800 pages each, programs and applications created over a span of 10 years, synchronized backups of online databases and files uploaded by clients, massive professional photography collections taken over the span of 20 years +, ongoing projects covering all of the above areas and backups of it all + 25,000 mp3s amassed over the years and their backups...

Oh, and by the way,

DVD Archives, TV Show Archives (DVR and Such Recordings), Audio Archives, Freeware Archives, Downloaded Shareware, Downloaded Purchases, Game Archives, Picture archives, system backups, misc crap..

the usual :beer:

i prefer to have a list of all my movies at the touch of the remote rather than pop a disc in...therefore, nearly all my DVDs are backed up on my server...
 
1 x 80gig sata Samsung for Vista
3 x 250gig sata Maxtors
1 x 250gig ide external

Fancying a 74 Raptor for the system..
 
The bulk of my 1.1TB is holding anime. All temp storage until I burn it on dvd's to make room for more. Friend of mine probably has 500GB in pr0n.
 
Oops, I voted wrong. I put down between 800GB and 1TB, but I should be in the next largest category.

yay for anime! :beer:
Not going to vote until after the server upgrade, but I currently have 800-1TB in the server, need to bump it to 3+TB once I find a good SATA Raid controller.
 
Well, after tomorrow my main desktop will have 2x 320, 2x 250, and 120. Other desktop has a 40, my laptop has a 60, smoothie has an 8, and I have 2 120s that don't have homes.

320+320+250+250+120+120+120+60+40+8=

1608 gigs.
 
just because savage feels the need to brag, i suppose i aught to just spew what i can remember...

100gb in my laptop
13 or so(+/-2, i should count them...) 250gb drives- various places
3 80gb, although im not sure if one works
3 40gb- that i know of...
1 30gb- bought when 40's just hit the market, hasnt had a day off yet
give or take 20-25 drives in the sub 20 gig range

If im missing any i dont really want to think about it, it makes my head hurt... Remember when a floppy would hold all the data you could ever want?
