4 x 200 RAID 5. That box is "always" busy, so I'd call it my most used

2x120GB + a 250GB drive.

I have drive letters up to O:
Next comp I build with huge drives, and the next time I format, I'm gonna operate the drives unix style, with volumes mounted as folders within C:\. My explorer tree is getting rediculous. I've already mounted a few volumes within C:\, so whatever :P

Hmmm, 'most used pc'. I actually work with my laptop more than any other computer, since I use it at work and to play d3. I turn off the laptop when I'm not using it. But my home server is always on, and pretty much always downloading something or other, or recording TV. You could say I'm using it 24-7 even though I'm not sitting there in front of it most of the time. Anyway, the server that's always on has a 200g and a 160g, although the 160 is no longer trustworthy and may die at any time. The laptop only has a 60 gig drive, 10g of which I had set aside for linux but never got around to using, and actually forgot about until I checked it for this survey. Now I'll have room for all those MAME roms. Thanks DBB!

I'd have you beat Mr. Perfect... :)

I currently have a 20 GB drive with anywhere between 200-900 MB free, depending on the size of the swap file at the time. Have to keep uninstalling stuff just to fit anything on...

How?

A RAID-0 arrays size is (size of smallest drive) * (number of drives)

In your case that would be 120*3=360.

I assume the 160gb drives are set up in RAID-0 and the 120 is separate...

2*200 + 2*250 + 1*160 ~= 1060 GB ("box" size). No RAID or anything. I like to live dangerously.

Most used PC?? HMMMM...
Max Gr.(pron Junior) my Mac is my Main Box. He has 2 HD, Left Brain and Right Brain. Can any1 beat(for smallest) a 10 gig drive as the default drive? (Left Brain) Right Brain is a 120 gig drive, plus he has a 100 meg Zip Drive if that counts as well.

Fusion's Game Box(PC) is a SATA 80 gig, and Max's Win Brain(PC) is a 10 gig Drive I believe.
