Hard Drive Space

[King of Camelot]

How big is your hard drive? Mine is 15 GB and it is chock full! Right now I have a little over 100 MBs of it free, the lowest its ever gone, 1 MB! I thought my computer was gonna die! About 6 GB of my hard drive is taken up by music. I am going to allow multi vote because I know many of you have multiple hard drives. Now to go get the little frog that hopped under my couch, my sister thinks I'm crazy but I did see a frog!!!!

Well, I'll just say 2 100+GB HDs since I am buying a new 100GB tomorrow to go with the one I already have. My motherboard can actually support 4 HDs though

I have a 1 GB boot drive....
A 6 GB System Drive....
A a 10 GB storage drive...

yeah...that's less then 20GB. Wait...let me recheck........*mumbling* carry to 2.....times pie squared...... yep. Less then 20GB.

However...the 6 GB is on the VERGE of crashing....as in I spent 30 minutes 30 minutes ago coaxing this ship alive. First it detected it as EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Which is obviously incorrect. Then it wouldn't pick it up at all. I reseated all the cables....you know...maybe I kicked it in my sleep or something....no dice.

Then booted to the XP CD to try and run recovery. And what did I see? The 1 GB 10 year old drive is there (the one I THOUGHT had crashed...I mean....it's 10 years old!!!) nnoooooooo....it's the 6 GB Western Digital POS was missing! And it's the system drive. Anyway...After a few more boots and autodetects....it repicked up the drive.

So I have most of the stuff backed up to the 10GB.....and egerly awaiting the crash. Unfortuntally.....I only have $200 until the 25th of Sept. So I don't know how I'll get a new drive.....

But when I do....it will be at least 40 GB.

So where is the 8 GB option?
I don't need anything bigger, when I have lots of music I just burn it on a CD.

 

[Pillager]

Mine is 20GB, which is plenty for me. I don't dl songs or video, although I do have 10GB of games installed, so I'm down to about 3GB free.

 

[Mikoyan]

21 gb IBM harddrive
I have two partitions, C: Hell Hole (19.0 gb, 7.25 gb free)
and E: Win2000 System (1.99 gb, 752 mb free)

 

[BlueMonday]

Ninety gigs. A 10GB hard drive that was originally installed with my computer and an 80GB hard drive that I added back in May. Everyone told me I'd never fill it up, but I have. Now I want a new computer with dual 120s.

 

[Padma]

I use a 40GB drive. It has about 6GB left free. I'm sure that 6G is a lie, but Windows has been screwing with my partitions. I'm just hoping it keeps working until I can find the time to re-format. re-partition, and re-load.

 

[The ANZAC]

I have two hard drives: one 15GB hard drive for windows and other stuff, and a 40GB one with whatever I want

 

[CornMaster]

Well...my drive crapped out. So now I have a 60 GB and a 1 GB and a 10 GB.....so that's..........71 GB.

But 40 GB are currently unpartitioned and unusable.

 

[damunzy]

Spent some of that 200 bucks, neh?

I have an 8 Gigger and a 40 Gigger.

Gotta upgrade the proc, mobo, ram, and then finally the HDDs.

Oh, and my system will allow me to have 8 HDDs!

 

[GenghisK]

No matter whatever the size, it'll never be enough for me alas... So far, just 2 small 80G but they're always running full. So often my downloads stop because there's absolutely not even 1 byte free on it. 0byte free it usually says. And it won't improve those days (because of icewindale 2 and sudden strike 2 )

 

[damunzy]

CD burning time! Or as you said in the other thread, DVD burner!

 

[Chieftess]

40 GIGs, but I only have up to 20 used. 2 20gig partitions. The 2nd has most of the info on this computer backed up. (Yes, I have 2. BTW, this one only has a 4 gig HD).

 

[Lucky]

A shocking 13 GB!

With a 2GB backup partition.
And a shocking 1.49 GB free.

 

[philippe]

i got 40hb
4000mb
lol
used 26 hb of it on games!

 

[Black Fluffy Lion]

4 GB

I have about 1/2 a gig free though...and I only just reformatted

 

[Smash]

40 gb with lots left.I'll never fill it as I uninstall when games go a month or so without use.

It'll do just fine until they come out with 10gb games

 

[Panzar75]

I have a total of 220 gigabytes, which isn't nearly enough. I will at least double that when I can afford it.

Movies, games, TV-series and so on... CD's yeah, well, too much work. And too easy to lose. No to mention, rather expensive.

I paid as much for my first harddrive, a whopping gigabyte as I did for my last one which is 120 gb. Now there's a good price development for once.

 

[MajorGeneral2]

Wow. I have 4GBs. And I'm using barely 65% of it. Of course, I don't bother with music, videos, etc. Mostly games, and only the ones I play often at that.
