how much space on your HD do you give to your websites (including any software used)?

[niv]

5 GB :D:rolleyes::p

[LastActionHero]

arnd 750 MB. you won't believe how small my hard disk is in terms of total space on it.

[bigperm]

I voted less than 250... but that seems low now... I need a bigger hard drive (Or just a new computer). I am getting cable in August too... yay!

[niv]

about 45% of that 5 GB i've alloted myself is images :rolleyes:

[Nick]

15GBs. It said including software, which I have plenty of (about 12GBs of software JUST for websites). Plus, I have about 3GBs of actual websites since I keep all of them backed up even though they are long gone.

[Giancarlo]

15-25MB. Don't laugh.

Yeah I'm planning to.

[niv]

i think 10 GB is sufficient

[LastActionHero]

nah I will go for a 40 GB. 10 GB and 20 GB hard disks are out of production now.

[niv]

you can get a 6 GB firewire drive :p

are you sure? seagate has stopped production of 10 GB and 20 GB drives.

[niv]

i'm talking about external drives that use IEEE 1394 :D

[LastActionHero]

uh ok I'm talking about the internal drives.

[niv]

well, you better backup because don't you lose all your stuff when you put in a new HD?

[LastActionHero]

Nope. I will just make my current disk as the secondary slave. (my cdrom is secondary master) and My new harddisk as primary master :)

[Nick]

I have a 30GB and a 20GB slave. My 30GB was almost full this weekend, I had to backup a lot of stuff, took 20 CD-Rs to backup all my install files, websites, PSD Files, Wallpapers, CGI/PHP scripts, addons, 3D models for Poser4/3D Studio Max/Bryce4/Painter 3D/Rhino 3D :p.

I've still gotta backup 10GBs of MP3s and 4GBs of Music Videos so I can reformat both HardDrives. That way I will gain all that space back from my all those programs that were pre-installed on it when I got it :D.

[Giancarlo]

I got a 20GB Seagate 7200RPM 8.5MS Hard Drive and a 15.3GB Maxtor 5400RPM 10MS Hard Drive set as a slave.

Both are only 20% full.

[Nick]

Every time I upgrade space I always end up having to put things on CD-R then end up buying a new comp or HD :p. First it was the 2GB, didn't last long with my discovery of Napster (back in the day, heheh:D). Then the 4GB, once again Napster filled that up. Along with the 30GB came the discovery of Music Videos, endless sprees of downloading at Tucows & Download.com, along with my ever growing collection of MP3s has filled up my 30GB, so I had to get a 20GB slave. The new system I'm working on paying for is from AlienWare and has dual 75GB HDDs, hopefully that will last me a good while.

[niv]

i have one main 20 GB 7200 RPM from Maxtor and i have one 45 GB external firewire drive ;)

[meow]

And I've got ADSL since 5 hours. Ho ho! No more dial up. YAAAAY!:D

[Rick]

I have a 15 and a 20 gig HD, but my web site, including software (my HTML editor (editpad - 293 kb)) Takes up a grand total of some 72 mb.

[Gayowulf]

My HD is 4.0 GB, and my computer is ----, my ISP is ----, my dialup speed is ----. Ive got it made. ive got about 1 gig of potential stuff for websites, but in all i would only use about 400 MB

[Giancarlo]

Need some good prices to upgrade? Check out http://www.pricewatch.com. They list the best of the best.

My ADSL is so sweet... sorry I am bragging again.

Ah! Now we have two 'braggers' on the forums. Meow has got ADSL too :D

[Nick]

YOU WILL ALL BOW DOWN TO MY 33.6k :D:D:D:D:D!!!!

Mwuahahahaha

[meow]

Ah, this ugly envy everywhere. :rolleyes:

[meow]

Hey Nick! I used a 28.8 12 hours ago. I beat ya anyway you see it. :D

[Nick]

Back in the day (well actually about a year and a half ago) we had the 14k modem, if you can beat that. You can win :D.

[meow]

I'm not talking about back in the day, I'm talking about TODAY. :D

I checked my email on my dad's old laptop yesterday morning, it was running 28.8 :D.

[niv]

i need DSL :p [the phone bill is now 120 dollars (20 before dialup :p)]

[Gayowulf]

isnt @home faster than ADSL?

[niv]

i don't believe in cable television. besides, they're very unreliable (in my area, it's optimum online and that isn't the best, i've heard a lot of complaints from my friends.) i'm trying to get verizon dsl but they are slow as hell when it comes to requests.

[LeX]

Back to the original subject..... I never checked. Without the software it can't be more than 100MB.
