what do you use your storage for?

[thirdworldking]

hey guys i am just wondering what you use your massive hdd for because i have a small amount of storage space and it suffices for me and i have games movies photos music etc.

 

in other words what is the bulk of your storage

[ANUPLUCIFERGAMER]

Games,photos,programs,back up,movies/videos.

I use it for pretty much all of those things. I think most people will use a drive for multiple things so the poll doesn't really work unless you can have multiple choice.

A lot of stuff.Mainly games and programs.

Most of it for movies and tv shows (about 90%), in the highest quality I can find.

After that is my picture library, which I mostly grow by using downloading scripts,

so there's lots of images being added all the time (on average, probably somewhere

between 500 and 1000). Some of those I actually use/look at (mostly space images,

which are often provided in nice high-res versions), others I just collect for later

review and then delete most of them again, keeping the few I actually like (the

reason I download them in the first place is that it's just easier this way than

to look at them in the browser and then right-click-save-as the ones I like).

Then there's music and my images I have created myself (photography).

So, yeah: video files, audio files and images.

how much storage space do you guys use aswell

[IdeaStormer]

how much storage space do you guys use aswell

 

Multiple Terabytes, I have a box of drives with random stuff from before or old backups of data I don't want on the system but still want. Then, there's old backups of systems I no longer have but I might convert those to VM's if needed for the work that was going on when those were active.

Most forms of media, all my school work (mostly MS office stuff and text files (programs)), backups, and Virtual Machines
