Ahhh the day is nearly here when it's common to have 4-6GB of RAM and over 1 TB of storage.

I've got about 2TB with all my random hard drives...about 1.1TB of it filled up.

I'm going to nab a few of the newer 500GB drives and RAID them and store all my photos, music, etc on them...then I can free up a bunch of the space on all of my primary drives. :)

A 1TB drive is a bad deal right now. You're better off grabbing a couple of 500GB drives...better for redundancy too. Grab a third and do striping plus parity and you've got 1.4TB and it's fairly safe from a drive failure.
