Hey Guys,

In the Poll post how many hard drives you have and how big they are + what format, then do a reply in what you voted.

I hope this is good :o

I don't know why this makes a difference but I have a pair of seagate SATAs, 120GB and a 320GB. The 320 was a replacement for the 120 which I thought was on it's last legs but apparently not. They are both NTFS (again does the format really matter?)


edit: oops didn't see the IDE/SATA option at the bottom, I didn't have to scroll when I was picking my drive sizes

1 80gb ide. 1 160gb sata. 1 40gb usb.
the 80gb is complicated. 3 prim. parts. 1 ext. part w/ 2 logic parts.
ntfs(xp), ntfs (vista 86), kubuntu 7.10 (ext3), ubuntu studio (ext3), linux swap (linuxswap)
the 160gb is ntfs, as is the 40gb usb
 
400GB on my Desktop (where did my other HD go, dissapeared and vista was on it crap)
250GB on My MACBOOK PRO -
1TB external for My MacBook Pro - The mybook
250GB external for My Desktop - The mybook aswell

2000GB :eek:

Well on my desktop I have 300GB Left HFS+
On My MacBook Pro 62.5 on vista MSDOS / NTFS
and 35GB on OS X HFS+
Then for time machine on OSX on my desktop I put 220GB external HFS+
And on time machine for OSX on my MacBook I put 500GB external HFS+
Then system back up on vista I put 200GB external MSDOS/NTFS

= 720GB Free on both machines including external

Also the HFS+ is journaled. And I never bring my external Drives with me Since the 1TB has two outputs of USB 2.0 I might sell my Desktop External and use the TB as an Main source.

Which would mean I have 430GB to put files in.
