How much is too much?

If you are considering in buying a new HDD, what size do you want it to be? 1tb or just 500gb? As the platter based storage systems for the pc are dirt cheap these days, I really would consider buying a terabyte of storage. How about you? what size would your HDD would be that meets your budget range?

By the way screed, do you have any idea how much it will cost if i buy the 1tb?

Considering that you could probably use the drive for a long-term storage, I don't think a terabyte drive would be too large.

I recently stopped backing things up with CD-Rs and bought an iomega external drive.

I'd say 1tb of storage and a DVD writer for archiving and you're all set.

1 portable TB is 125$ so its pretty cheap, i say, i would buy of course the TB cause i need as much space i can get , i still remember when i had my 300GB and i had to delete some of my shows cause it was 99% full , and it wasnt really nice to do that , if i had money to spend on that i would buy the 1 TB
