You can never have enough Hard Drive space

I have over 1 TB available to this machine, yet I only have 9 GB free!!! Ughhh! Anyone seen any good deals on hard drives lately?

There's about 3-4TB of storage in this house, I keep meaning to get some sort of network going. Bah, another day.

I could fill it up in 2 weeks, if I had that much

I format my PC every couple of months now, need more disk space

Video takes a lot. Figure on average about 1.33 GB per 30 min of video.

I currently have 402 programs waiting to be watched on TV. I probably have actually watched about 1/3rd of them.

Now here is the funny part - my 96 khz / 24 bit version in its compressed format will sound better than those of you that bought this CD!

:p

500gb hd here with 283gb to spare

Just the games i always play are on 4 all up, rest is apps/usual software MS office etc., some music, a folder with all the DL mods.

When i use to run fraps i didn't know the gameplay movies i would take were so large when i checked the files they added up to 22 gigs of the stuff so dont use as much. Gone back to camtasia studio.

A 500g will last me a while

Thank you Lord. Until now, everyone looked at me in a wrong way, when I told them, that my almost 1TB capacity is not enough. Finally people who understand.

As a European, I can tell you, that you can get great euro per GB in Metro. A few months ago, it was 75 euro for an external 500GB disk. A few week ago, the same price got you a 750GB external disk. Too bad, they're a bit too far from where I live, so I have to make due for now, with my 1TB.

TigerDirect and Newegg is pretty much all I know.
