How Much Hard Drive Space Do You Use?

How much space is presently used on your hard drive(s)? If you use multiple systems, don't combine them all - vote for the one that has the most data stored.

Feel free to combine the amount of data used over multiple hard drives in the same system.

I have been cutting back, right now I am using about 50GB..
Of course I am starting to install/download some stuff again, so expect me to fill up the HD fast.

(That's on my main computer at least )

Mine's between 15-20gb. Simply because the hd 20gb
The other computer holds a hd of 40gb but isn't used much.
(it's simply a gaming computer)

80gb has half of it used up, and that was after a cleanup!

Around 65Gb, TV recording takes up too much space. This is just after a format of my system drive too. Still have to put everything back.

I have 260GB in my main rig, 4 X 40GB in RAID 0 and a 100GB for backup and video files and stuff, I use about 30GB on each.

Well, this just isnt fair to me. : ) I map lots of drives and spread things out. I have a 8 boxes, 30g, 11g, 11g, 20g, 20g, 15g, 6g, and 5g with stuff spread all over them depending on what it is and how often I use it. Archiving on DVD now too. Basically I am too cheap to buy big drives so I just use the network. Does the 500 meg I have at the web hosting company that I use as my "mobile" storage count?
