Do you store shit in your computer?

I mean, having a lot of files saved that you wont need.
Or do you deleted them time by time?


My OCD is fucking with me regarding stuff saved in my computer. I want to know how do you manage your files, and if you keep them in order, if you keep the minimum possible, or how you do it.

I only have a 256gb M2 SSD on my computer. I have a 4tb NAS running on an old machine where I dump all my crap.
>>
>>53288014
On Windows 10

So badly
>>
Two drives, SSD for the boot drive and everything stored on 1TB HDD
>>
>>53288605
and I save tons of garbage and occasionally purge it using Glary to check what's using the most space
>>
I delete what I don't need. Most of what I keep is fap material.

I buy new hard drives when I run out of space

It's simple and effective

I horde crap in an unorganized fashion until I reinstall the OS and then I tell myself I'll organize things this time but I just do it all over again and end up with 15gbs of bullcrap again
>>
>>53288014
I have a 4tb external for my movies and shows that's well organised.
As far as my actual PC I have a 128gb ssd for program's and obviously my os
And a 2tb hard drive for all my games music and program's I may or may not use
I also collect memes and when they get stale they go into a vintage memes folder
I'm thinking of getting a 6tb internal so all my movies and shows are on my PC also
>all and all I'm pretty organised
>>
I store shit until I either need space, or need to backup/reinstall OS. When either of those things happen I get rid of the largest shit files first (generally, video -> games -> photos -> music -> documents) and go from there.
>>
I only use 250gb drives so I don't typically have useless shit saved on any of my computers. Everything there is stuff that I need.

Yea I'm rather organized and I store a lot on my main machine. I'm actually going to the store soon for a 3rd 4TB drive to put into a Linux software RAID 5 for my server. The Fractal Node 304 came in yesterday from Newegg.

All the SSDs are volatile storage though. OS, game installs, work space. Nothing put on the SSDs gets backed up.

I don't keep anything on my SSD, that's the only way I can be happy about my organization of files.

The only media I save is porn, which I have organized to such extreme level it goes beyond autism. It can literally take me hours to organize the folders of some girls since I create folders for every scene, complete with screen cap, correct title and for my top 10 girls I also create webms.

15gb is nothing

forfiles /p "C:\" /s /m *.* /c "cmd /c Del @path" /d -30

save as bat, it will clean up all files older than 30 days old.
>>
>>53292989
change "c:\" to a directory of your choice
change *.* to *.jpg to just clean jpgs
change -30 to -any other number to change clean date from time of file creation
>>
No I only store a cheeseburger and a soda in mind

Stuff that will actually get used again, yes.

>Movies
>Music
>Game ISOs
>Programs that are either discontinued and no longer update or are cracked
>Pictures

Other than that, I just use my OS until it gets full, back up whatever I want to keep using, wipe it, and start over. Just filled up my 1Tb storage so once the OS drive is full this time I'll have to get a second storage drive.
>>
Every time you run out if space just add a new HDD, a 1-2tb really doesn't cost much these days.

Could be, I don't even watch like 90% of the porn I download. I literally skip to the end of the scene in 99% of the scenes and I'm done.

I don't think I have porn problem, more like a collecting problem.

Also I plan to release a sort of 'ultimate porn' torrent once I reach 4 TB of quality porn, over the years I've pruned over 5 TB to create what I consider the best 10/10 collection, currently around 3 TB.
