Who has the most HD space?

Post by Darth Wong »

Not counting corporate networks you may have access to, of course :)

My home LAN has 5 PCs on it. They have 80+120GB, 30GB, 80GB, 80GB, and 30+120GB of space on them respectively. That's a total of 540GB of hard disk space accessible through my home LAN.

Anybody else got me beat?

(yes, I'm aware that someday, someone might look through an archive of this board and laugh his ass off that we measured hard drives in mere gigabytes).

Let's see:

40+80,
60+60+100+120
5+80
30+30

Yeah, I think I do. Of course, My two 30's just crashed at the *same* time ( :evil: ) so I have to get them replaced...

Damn, I'm beat. Oh well... the 80 on this one is plenty and 12 on my other is sufficient for the menial tasks its Celeron 500MHz processor can barely handle...

Three computers on a LAN, each with Maxtor 120gB HDD's. 360gB total for all my warez needs. 8) Wong still has me beat with his 540gB though, but I'm running out of disk space and will be soon doubling-up (hopefully) with another 120gB per machine.

I only have 80 GBs, 60% of which is occupied by porn.

I feel so inferior.

Hmm, 40 gig on my PC here at uni, 40 gig on my bro's PC at home and another several gig on the old PC in my parent's room. Around 100 gig I'd say. I don't really need more HDD space, I want more RAM and a new video card.

How the fuck can you afford to have FIVE PCs? Dammit, I'm stuck on this five-year old PII!

Oh, 40 gigs.

You'd be surprised how much it costs to build your own...it's considerably cheaper than buying a hunk of shit from the likes of dell or so..

Fear my 15 gig HD! No, really, fear it. It has the demonic power of managing to contain comparatively little for only having 900 MB left. Curse it and crush it, preciousss...

You'd be surprised how easy it can be to collect PC's. I helped someone move a hard drive from a P2 to a P4 machine, and he was like, you can just take the old PC if you want.

We have a bunch of machines and I can't be bothered to look it all up, but our house probably has space comparable to Mike's.

Well, like I said, I've got 540gB in total and I think I'm on ~490gB. :oops: I've got so much junk that I really should set-up a server, too bad my connection has a dynamic IP. :evil:
