Does anybody here see any reason to get a Terabyte sized hard drive? To me it seems like completely overdoing it all, I would never ever use that much space because I only play a few games and only listen to a few gigs of music. Any thoughts?

Having that much space would allow you to store your movie collection on your computer. A software/game developer would be able to keep past projects of graphics intense games that use up 5+ GB of space for each project without filling up the HD... I only have 2GB of music on my computer right now, but if I had that much space I'd have something like 50GB of music! I would definitely use it up eventually... It would take a long time though. Wow, I'd love to have a terabyte of HD space!

I'd love to have terabyte of HD. I will download all the software i need and all the music i like and also movies. Heaps of movies 4 sure.

if i have that much space... i'll try to get a T3 and above internet and host a server... lol

You could still have a server with less than a T3 i think so.

hahaha... but getting t3 can ensure yopur server goes really fast and doesn't crash all da time...

Yes, that's true if you say it like that. But if you have the correct software and have a good ISP then you will be allright in my opinion.

yeah you can... you can even have a server with 56K... but those will run really slow..

For a server, it is best to have broadband instead of dial-up cause it is very slow. But if you have dial-up that gives like 50Kbps instead of 40.0, then it will be a bit better.

Well, I'm more than comfortable with my 200 Gb. hard drive. Though I never turn it off, it's almost impossible for me to use it 100%. Of course, I burn what I download from now and then.
