Ok, Just curious on how many Gb (Gigabytes) you have in your home.

(Total Space) from all machines.

I will be adding screen shot of mine later:

Workstation: 4 x 80Gb (striped) 320Gb
Server: 5 x 500Gb (Raid5) 2500Gb or 2.5TB (2Tb usable)
HTPC: 2 x 500Gb (no Raid) 1000Gb or 1Tb
Laptop: 1 x 60Gb (no raid) 60Gb

Total 3880Gb or 3.8Tb



BTW about 2.7Tb in use or 1.1Tb of usable space left!

1.3TB. The biggest drive I have is one 320gb and one 250gb. The rest of the gbs are divided among 8 other hard drives from older machines.
I took 6 of the older drives and added them to a case. Hooked up 2 IDE controller cards and a wireless network card to a $79 D805/ECS combo and put it into the basement. I have Mandriva runnnig on it and access it using ssh/putty/ftp/vnc/samba.

This could get really hard to calculate depending on much stuff you're willing to add up:

My Gaming PC has a 120 GB internal hard drive and an external 160 GB harddrive.
My Mac Mini has an 80 GB hard drive
My laptop has an 80 GB hard drive
I'm not sure how big the hard drive in my DVR is, but I'm going to assume 160 GB since it's the HD model.
My old PC in storage has a 20 GB hard drive and a 40 GB hard drive
My iPod has a 30 GB hard drive
My digital DLR has a 512 MB memory card and 1 GB microdrive
My old digital P+S camera has a 256 MB memory card and a 128 MB memory card.
I think that my GPS has 1 GB of onboard storage, in order to hold the entire Garmin US and Canada map on it
My cell phone has a 128 MB memory card and about 48 MB of onboard memory.
My old TI-85 calculator has 28K of memory :)
Good luck trying to figure out how much onboard storage your car has!

If I wanted to go insane, I could start adding the storage capacity of every CD-R and DVD I have.... I'm not going there, though.

My desktop: 500 + 250 + 120 = 870 GB
Brother's desktop: 500 + 250 + 120 = 870 GB
Mom's desktop: 120 GB
My laptop: 60 GB
Brother's laptop: 60 GB

870 + 870 + 120 + 60 + 60 = 1980 GB
