      Oh... geez 2 to 3 terrabytes would be a fast guess. I have 1 TB in one box alone.

        I'd be hovering around the 1000 GB, is that a TB ?

                  About 3 floppy disks worth? I mean, how much more should an OS take up?

                    depends how you count. I have 5x160GB drives in a raid3 config for 640gb usable space. I also have one each 250gb, 60gb, 10gb, 3.7gb, and .5gb drives, all but the last two are in use, the 3.7 will be if/wehen I ever get linux installed on the frankenbox it's part of. A total of 962 decimal GB or about 900 binary. I intend to get a 2nd external HD to maintain an offsite backup of personal files, whenever I get around to that I'll be a member of the TB club.

                              Definately me... My main desktop has a total of 190gb, and my notebook has a 100gb HDD. If you want to count the OLDIES... I guess I could add another 30gb that's not in use.;P

                                          which leaves you with 970Gb of free space to reach the TB. Plus your whole life is not sufficient for listening to >30Gb ... so what is the point again ?
