All of House so far in 1080p probably adds up to a couple hundred gigs alone. HD destroys HDDs. Games are starting to get intense too, Witcher 2 was what, 15 gigs? I have 2.6TB available on my desktop, and I'd say about 2TB is taken up already. I'll need another TB before the end of summer.
edit: this is what happens when you have access to a filesharing system that DL's at 40MB/s lol
Splitting music collections up over multiple drives suck. So once they get really big it's best to get a whole pile of WD Green 2TB and RAID them in a way that you get 6TB and redundancy backup for all of it. :P
Besides, wouldn't want to lose everything would we?

haha yup. I had 1MB/s for the year, that got me pretty far with DC++. I'll have 10MB/s next year. Love university internet speeds, but I hate how they throttle some things
Laptop - 320 GB - used for random stuff. I use this computer about 90% of the time so I have a lot of files on it
Desktop - 1 TB - new computer so I haven't really filled up any of the hard drive space yet. I might transfer a bunch of videos onto it since my external drive is almost full
500 GB External - Videos (movies and anime), Games, Music, bunch of stuff like that. It's actually almost full, but I need to delete some bad anime off it once I watch it, so that should give me another 50 GB
It doesn't take much to tear through a terabyte, especially if you're looking to get a bunch of music (especially lossless music) or games. When some higher-end games take seven, eight, sometimes twelve or more GB to install, that stuff adds up pretty fast.
What I really want is 10 TBs of solid state drives. The thought makes me drool.

Probably run you anywhere from $25-40,000 - but that's quite an amazing thought. =P
Give it a few years and manufacturers will catch up and they'll certainly get cheaper. I don't think it's out of the question to see a consumer use single terabyte SSD for under $200 in the next 3 years.
