My 'puter is six years old... I already had a 6GB and a 20GB drive in there...

Not near enough room, in preperation for gigs (I'm a part-time party DJ), I had to uninstall stuff to make room for mp3's...

Pulled the 6GB'er out and stuck an 80GB'er in [img]smile.gif[/img] Ton's o' room now!

6, 20, 80 GB. Thats nothing. 400GB is where it is at. And that is just my storage drive.

No matter what you're never gonna have enough room. I was in the same situation years back, probably around '95 or so. Finally convinced my parents to get me a 60GB maxtor drive at costco, which i said i was gonna pay them for. $450. That helped out a bit i didnt have to delete stuff as i wanted more. But it didn't take long to fill that up and i was being forced to delete movies and or uninstalll programs.

Picked up an 80gb somewhere around 2000 and that was sweet, now i had more than twice the room. I was golden. That didn't go very far, you get a song or two and it's full.

So recently i picked up a 200gb drive since they're fairly cheap (and a LCD screen)and i was pretty stoked, even with the pain it was getting it to run off a controller card, but now i'm lookin and i have lotsa room on my G drive, but still not a ton of room. I've got no worries now, but you get a song or 15000 and it takes up room quickly. A **** file or two....that room don't last.

It's never enough!!!

I have a 160. I don't know what I'd do with anymore than that. My drive has never gotten more than half full.
