To make things simple, count in decimal (i.e. what the drive is labeled as).

And don't complain about the poll options, it only let me put in 4 for some reason.

yeah, I dont watch movies on my computer either, so all I have are games and music. I only have about 10-15Gb of music, so that's not a lot.

I don't know why people keep on bringing up porn.

Personally, since I don't have television (nor do I particularly want it), I have to get my passive entertainment from other sources. So the vast majority of my harddrives (around 700 gigs of dedicated drives) are filled with tv shows and movies of one form or another.

Sure I could just watch and delete, but it's always nice to know that a particular simpsons episode or whatever else I happen to be in the mood for is there for me to watch just in case. That, and burning to CD/DVD takes time, isn't nearly as convenient, and probably will get damaged sometime compared to harddrives.

I probably spend less money on harddrives than most people do on their cable/satellite tv bill over a period of a few years.

Tricord · Post by **Tricord** » Mon Mar 22, 2004 1:37 am

I have a 18GB drive for programs, games and OS. Then a 9GB drive for swap and temp, and a (slow) WD12000JB for storage.

Then my brothers each have a box, with probably around 10GB storage together.

Exactly the same situation here, in fact...

I think he meant "I get *off* my fill of the computer boobies."

Simple mistake.

Heh no Topher, I think you're just grasping for straws there :)

Anyway... I forgot to mention the whole "root access to the department servers"... about 1 TB of total space there, with a gigabit pipe :D Now, if only there was a TV show I was actually interested in watching...
