How many do you have?

I have 8:

A - Floppy
B - SuperDisk LS 120
C - 9.1GB SCSI HDD
D - 40GB IDE HDD
E - 80GB IDE HDD
F - 2GB SCSI Jaz
G - 32X SCSI CD-ROM
H - IDE CDRW

I used to have 10, but I took out Zip and a SCSI HDD.
 
Hmmm... lets see... 7HDD's *all scsi 9.1's) a floppy, a dvd, plus externally 2 more hdd's a tape drive and a cdr... the next system... ummm 2 x 60, 1 x 40, 1 x20, 2 x 9.1, floppy, cdrom, cdrw, dvd, sadly all that space and only 4Gb open!

The new system I am working on... once finished will have a 60Gb, 4 80's (IDE raid), a 40Gb, 2 36Gb Fiber channels drives, one u160 36Gb Hdd, dvd, and floppy. (I still have to pick up the 80's and the ide raid card.... and waiting on some parts to come in yet.... my damm case and NSF's!)
 
1 x Floppy
1 x Internal ATAPI zip drive
1 x Philips 8x CDRW
1 x 27Gb 7200 IBM drive
1 x 40Gb 5400 IBM
 
In my main box:

1 x floppy
1 x Pioneer DVD
1 X Liteon 24x CDR/RW
4 x 100GB (8MB buffer) WD HDDs in RAID-0

So 7. 8 if you count the 1GB Microdrive that is sometimes in my PC card reader. 🙂

In my old box:

1 x floppy
1 x DVD
1 x Liton 16x CDRW
2 x 45 GB IBM 75GXP in RAID-0 (trouble free for over a year.)
