300gb at the moment but im looking at 2 more the same size. ;P

what kind of things must you do in order to carry that much data. i have a 60 gig and ive used 10gig of it...

 

[Bobo]

I've used 180GB of this 250GB. I just store stuff. Everything stuff. Except porn.

LOL Were supposed to believe that!

I have an 80GB in my pc, my brother has 100GB, my dad has 160GB and we got a Maxtor external HD in the PC World sale at half price and that is 320GB. That is used for backing up all our hard drives.

LOL Were supposed to believe that!

*sigh* Yes, you are. Because it's the truth.

Actually my 250GB is out of commission (see my fire in the hard drive thread) so I have 200GB right now, but as soon as the part comes, I'll have 450GB.

What are you gonna do with 450GB? 80GB is just enough for what i need although by the middle of next month i plan to get an extra 160GB or 200GB for my pc. It'll be mainly used for making game mods and stuff which i have only just started doing, but i'm finding it very enjoyable although it can drag on a bit!

What are you gonna do with 450GB,

I'm gonna have a backup of everything. I'll probably get an external enclosure for one of them.

 

[WeatherGeek]

I have 250 gb that came with my system... 128 gb of it is used

 

[grimxx]

320gb don't really need any more I use the comp for manily burning dvds and gaming so space for me is not really an issue but now that hd dvd and all that new stuff is coming out I might need an upgrade

 

[hpi]

I have a 300gb one.

 

[robina_80]

80gb for windows and
320gb for data eg movies tv series music, music videos

 

[kof2000]

last time i checked i had 36 250gb maxtors. i tried not to break the 250 barrier seeing as how fragile they are and i dont want to lose more than 250gb of data at a time

 

[Bobo]

36?hard drives? wtf?!?! Why would you have to worry about losing data? You could set up one nasty RAID array with those.

 

[kof2000]

my electric will skyrocket if i do that. it is already around 300 monthly...

 

[The_Beast]

i have a 60gig in the family HP and once i get my computer i will be getting a 320gig

 

[Bobo]

my electric will skyrocket if i do that. it is already around 300 monthly...

then why do you have them sitting around?

 

[kof2000]

they are not plugged in.

 

[JFHuff]

160+80......bought the 80 last week to help with all the crap on my comp and im still running short on space

 

[Geoff]

they are not plugged in.

So why do you have them then?

 

[Kornowski]

I have a 40GB, it's a bit small, I've got 14GB left, So I'm ok for now, I guess...

Is it better to get an external or an external one, I know an internal one will be faster but is that the only thing?
