Well I fell proud as I currently have two 1tb,1 500gb, 1 400gb drives with about 300 gb free on them.
As for what to use the space pot, to answer Harry T's question is media.
I have nearly my entire DVD collection (over 150 discs) ripped to one of them , some as MPG4 files others as ISO's ( the one's with the intersting extras) so I can have access to my entire collection easily without having so worry about managing discs, and be able to easily transfer the files to a media player. That takes up about 700GB.
Then I have all my Cd's ripped as mp3s at 320kbps for future proofing. This includes music, audiobooks, lectures, intersting podcasts, religious discorses, etc. This comes to around 100gb which is backed up on all the drives for safety and redunduncy.
The same with my photo archive with about 6 years worth of photos, many in RAW format which comes to about 100gb agan backed up on multiple drives and multiple Dvd's for safety and residency.
This is just some of the ways in which space even on TB Drives can get used up. Infact I'm planning on getting a couple of more drives in the near future to back up everything offsite.
