Post by: mikhael on July 20, 2003, 10:17:32 pm: Does the question include NAS/SAN?

Now that I've got the VPN to the lab at work, my network drives add up to about 16 terabytes. ;)

If you're just asking aobut local storage, I'm running 480gb in this machine, and 960 in the file server. My wife is the loser coming in at 240 in hers.

Title: How much total HDD space do you have?
Post by: Rampage on July 21, 2003, 08:52:16 am: I have a 13 GB HD that's a bit over half full. I don't download a lot of stuff over the Internet so I wouldn't require a large one.

The computer that I'm constructing sometime in September will have a Western Digital 40 GB. Since I don't download a lot, I wouldn't require a large one, since it's a waste of money this way. With that money, I could get a better video card or whatnot.

Another thing, the larger the HD, the easier it will break. Ten years ago, about 500 MB was the largest you could get. Back then, it was about several tens of clusters per 20 Å. Now it's several hundreds per 5 Å or whatnot. So if some mishap happens and your HD gets scratched by the "needle", a larger amount of clusters would become useless. That means one scratch could take out 6-7 GB of space.

Post by: diamondgeezer on July 21, 2003, 09:42:55 am: ROFL...

Topace mate, seriously, you call your HD a winchester and Zylon will come lay the smack down on you (and for once I may well have to agree with him)

Oh, and 80+20 jigabytes for me :nod:

Easy, Lots and lots of Hi-res textures and duplicats of them and movies too. Basicly raw uncompressed data.

Yeah, the evil misuse of those SI units eh? I mean, who would be so silly to call 1024 bytes a kilobyte? Everyone knows a kilo implies 1000! Oh wait, are you complaining about the **bibytes? Those aren't SI units... ;)

I was but then thought that there might be stuff that would need to be added or whatever. So I didn't do one.
