How big is your HDD?

[big_mike]

For those that dont know, HDD stands for hard disk drive. lol

I have 3 I am storing on right now, and am in dire need of more. I save a lot of movies, back up ones I currently own, and have a ton of music, so thats where most of my space is going, but below is what I have.

external - 250 gigabyte
external - 80 gigabyte
internal - 160 gigabyte

490 gigs total, and I have 23 gigs free.

[kempenstein]

geez, mine is like 80, I have to make a ton of DVD backups, I'll upgrade one of these days.

[big_mike]

ya know, Lacie has a 250GB external for $90.

Shit wish I could get a unit like that but I can get 4 1TB units for less than half that price, speaking of that I will be getting one of those 1TB units tomorrow maybe it will last me a month before it's all filled.

my new hp pavillion laptop = 250gb or so which is plenty for me

[Captain TK]

jeez. here I am just getting the "your disk is full, please delete some of your crap" message on the internal 80 gig on my lappy. Damn. 2T in one unit. that makes me feel very sexy for some reason.

[mojojojo530]

I have a 500GB Western Digital External E-Book (My Book). Laptop has a 40GB internal Drive

[Filmpro101]

Good God...How much porn do you people have!?!?!?!?...lol

I mean, I have my fair share...but...jeeze....

anyway...

750GB...I'm a filmmaker....one single project I have takes up 27 gigs.

[big_mike]

I actually have less than 50GB of porn, 40 of which belong to nikki. Most of mine is DVD ripping (aka backup of movies I own officer!) and those eat up either 800MB or 4GB, depending on how I get them. It adds up very quickly! My pictures is only 40GB worth.

I need to find a new drive, but cant decide between two 500GB or one 1TB drive.

[Filmpro101]

I say two 500's

cause if one goes...you still got the other...the other way, well, if one goes....you're fucked.

[oBie]

i have a 250 GB external HD but i think its only got like a gig of space left. im gunna have to buy another one pretty soon.

1 x external 320Gb WD Mybook
