Not enough. I have 500 megabytes total, spread out over three disks. The main drive is at 94% full, and the other two are 75% full.

I agree with Bob, not enough. I have a 500 onboard and about a 1.6 terabyte in external drives. I'd like to have more onboard.

1.25 TB.

My son suggested I get a SATA/IDE to USB 2.0 adapter by Vantec in order to use those old internal drives that have been replaced with higher capacity drives. At $20, it has been a very useful tool. I got mine from newegg: Newegg.com - VANTEC CB-ISATAU2 SATA/IDE to USB 2.0 Adapter - Retail

Not enough. My computer's a laptop with 120 GB internal... so we're talking ~110 GB.

I do have ~1.8 TB worth of external storage though. =)

It has changed from ~650 GB of external storage, to ~1.62 TB of external, to ~1.5 TB of external, and so on, as hard drives have been added and subtracted.

1.5TB available on a 4 disk 2TB RAID5. I've used about 50% of that so far, though it's not all photos - have some home videos too.

I've got (2) 500's inside and a stack of 500 externals, only 2 are plugged in full time, the rest are archives. It's not all photos, I have a good bit of artwork as well.

Around 800GB(internal) on the editing machine home-made watercooled PC plus 1 TB on external disks

120GB on studio machine (macbook pro) + 1.5TB on ecternal disks.

1 TB of external disks contain copies of original raw files + backup of Lightroom,
1 set under NTFS and the second using HFS . On macbook pro a 500GB external disk as working disk connected through esata

500GB is about 6 month worth of data, the next couple is due in february.

It's a little bit scary how much storage space a lot of us have... I've too much to backup offline so rely on multiple disks and hardware RAID, but if it all goes pop I'm screwed.... What we need are terabyte sized tape drives/optical writers at a reasonable price. Seems like that's not quite caught up with disk capacity yet.
