How Much storage do you have?[views:1889][posts:25]______________________________________ [Jul 29,2009 9:15am - the_reverend ""] I've been trying to get my backup system set. I decided to add up my hard drives 6x1.5TB seagate 2x750GB seagate 2x1.5TB western digital 3x2TB western digital 1x1TB western digital 8x500GB random drives that's not including drives in computers. 24+TB? whoah... |
___________________________________ [Jul 29,2009 9:17am - dreadkill ""] i have 4 closets. 2 in the hall and 1 in each bedroom. i store lotsa stuff in them. |
_____________________________ [Jul 29,2009 9:26am - pam ""] I have western digital passport 250GB, buying another one with 500GB with my fall school refund. It's almost full. I blame the baby...I take a lot of pictures. |
_________________________________ [Jul 29,2009 9:42am - reimroc ""] Personally around 2 TB. |
_____________________________________ [Jul 29,2009 10:37am - porphyria ""] If you threw away some of your duplicate photos you probably wouldn't need so much space... 2 x 2tb raid1 / wd 2 x 750gb raid 1 / samsung 3 x 750gb backup / stupid seagate 1 x 150gb os / wd raptor |

It's almost full. I blame the baby...I take a lot of pictures.um.. what? That reads like a midget saying "why am I so tall". 250GB = my pictures since january. Not including film scans. porphyria said:If you threw away some of your duplicate photos you probably wouldn't need so much space... yeah, lord knows you only need one coy of your pictures. I have one copy at work and 2 copies at home (one online and one off line). I wasn't counting OS's or my passports. I have 2 250GB wd passports and 1 250GB freeagent. my configuration is QNAP 639pro: 3x2TB wd RAID 5 (photos/vidoes/torrents) 2x1.5TB seagate, 1x1.5TB RAID 5 (programs/mp3s/pc backups/unsorted) DROBO 1.5TB WD 1.5TB seagate 1TB wd 750GB seagate The drobo is a back up synch of my QNAP. I want to swap out the 750GB seagate with another 1.5TB seagate, but there is a known lock up issue with the drobo when you introduce a second 1.5TB shitgate. I'm waiting for fw CC1G to come out befor I do that. Then I have 3x1.5TB seagates that sit in cavlry 2xJBOD USB http://www.keenzo.com/showproduct.asp?M=CA...RY_STORAGE_EN-CAHDD2B-ZB&ID=4056788 I got them for like $20 each. I turn those on once a month and synch with the QNAP. Currently, they just have my photos on them. Right now, I have a few 500GB just sitting around. I also have a copy of my pictures on some 500GB at work cause I haven't finished organization and synching the DROBO. |

______________________________________ [Jul 29,2009 2:01pm - the_reverend ""] weird those look about as different as different can be. Plus if I then deleted 2 pictures out of 500, that would mean that I would only need 23.990TB instead of 24TB. |
______________________________________ [Jul 29,2009 2:03pm - the_reverend ""] those images were also take 5 minutes apart. sucked cause I had to re-set everything up and have everyone get back in the same pose. |
____________________________________ [Jul 29,2009 2:03pm - porphyria ""] yeah, so different........I would keep the second one / trash the first. okay, I'm not going to go through your 8 billion photos but I bet you could narrow it down to at lest half as keepers. |
______________________________________ [Jul 29,2009 2:06pm - the_reverend ""] If I were to do that, there would be less than 2 pictures per 3-4 concerts. |
____________________________________ [Jul 29,2009 2:07pm - porphyria ""] hahah, yeah yeah. |
__________________________________ [Jul 29,2009 2:25pm - dertoxia ""] i think that now we're at a point where 1TB is less than $100.....why delete anything, ever? Rev is a special case, most people would never ever need that much storage. But when an average joe can go out and without too much cash come home with a 4TB redundant array...what's the point of deleting stuff? But i do look forward to checking back on this post in 10 years and say "how the hell did we manage with drives under 1 petabyte?" |

__________________________________ [Jul 29,2009 2:40pm - dertoxia ""] when i got my first DVD burner i thought it was the coolest thing ever. 4.7GB on one disc?!?! no way! Somewhere i have a booklet of 100 DVD's all organized by category. I thought it was a massive amount of storage. But if the discs are all full (they're not) then that's only 470GB. |
