My main rig is at 240 GB. If I counted the ~12 other machines in my house, I would be well over a Terrabyte in space.

Second box: 2 IBM 75GXP 45 GB drives in RAID-0 = 90GB
Laptop: 1 40 GB drive

It's pretty fast. Not fast enough for me though. I can't wait until HDs are as fast as memory :)

Seriously, though, it's only about 2x faster than a single drive as it's on a two channel Iwill IDE RAID controller.
