    120 Gb I don't store anything on my hard drive it all goes to my raid setup and /or a 320 Gb portable drive. As I do a lot of photos I would rather have the storage away from PC or laptop.

    160 GB internal, but actually double as I have a Raid configuration.

    5 External drives - not always connected - used for backups
    I did not buy all of these but saved drives from old PC's , mine and those of our children), and put in external USB hard drive enclosures which I found online for very low price.
    Purchased ones - 500 GB and 300 GB
    From Old PC's - 20GB, and 2 others about 100 GB.

    Hello wildfire.
    I am just here to find out as much as I can about as much as I can about anything.
    I am in the long process of reformating and reinstalling windows vista on my son's laptop and it is not going smoothly.
    I am now reformatting for the second time.
    What a mess he had.
    Thanks for the welcome.

    I am very happy with the way they are assisting me.

    500 SATA - 160 SATA - 2X80 SATA - Main Box
    2x120 IDE - 100IDE - Backup box - soon to be NAS
    Lap has 200

    Most of it is empty - just can't forget space saving dating back to the old 20M drives..... Hard to believe 20Meg WITH an OS and lots of programs.... Times change!!
