This is very sad! I have no HDD space left!

Mine's worse.

And that's just this one workstation. The rest of the network is in FAR worse shape. I have 160gb drives with 0 bytes free in several places.

And before anyone asks, my HDD's are named after nuclear weapons on this workstation. I used to have "FAT MAN" but it ended up getting RMA'd back to Maxtor, and I was out of IDE channels when it got back. It'll be readded as soon as I get a 16x DVD burner and can dump my CDRW.

it seems like you need to put the drives in a raid 5 config! That way you could COMBINE the HDD space and it won't seem as bad which will THEN give you a total 1.8GB of free space (you raid the 4 other HDDs).

:confused:

What i meant is, what do you have that you can't just either throw away or burn onto a DVD? I guess if you do ALOT of video editing and file hosting that kind of storage might be necessary...

I don't trust DVD+/-Rs.

Hard drives are so cheap these days, I don't know how anybody can be low on space...after putting in the 250GB that I got on BF, I'll be set for a while. :p

Too easy to be confiscated for evidence, eh? Your hard drives are wired for detonation, right?

They are tied to my heart. If it ever stop for a period longer than 10 minutes, the drives starts self-destructing.

Your hard drives are so small! My 4x 120GB are full, and my brand new 250GB drive is filling up fast!
