Who /datahoarder/ here?

thats a lot of JAV son

They should turn it into a reality TV show. Except that most of it is porn, so they wouldn't be able to air it on TV.

Pfft. Get on my level, kid.

I'm about to fill the rest of my 4TB HDD and just made a list of 50+ more TV shows to download every episode of.

Should I go with another 4TB drive? How are HGST's larger drives? I was worried about having five platters, I can't imagine getting a 6 or 8TB drive.
>>
>>54396930
~100kb reaction pictures from /b/, of course.

>>54397055
I'd go with another 4TB drive. 4 Terabyte server-grade storage is the best imo.

I swear I'm no longer careless with my porn. If I find a really good one I have to download it because you never know if tomorrow it just disappears and you will never experience that joy again
>>
>>54396659

I have about:

> 1.2TB FLAC
> 1.75 TB pr0n
> 2TB of TV shows
> 1.25 TB movies

Then another 2-3TB of other stuff, family pics & home movies, sex tapes w wife, paperwork, programs, and other archives. Is that a lot?
>>
You guys preparing for a year long internet outage or why the autism?
>>
>>54397662
This just seems excessive. I keep my pr0n saved on an 8GB flash drive. Anything pirated takes up maybe 1-1.5TB. But really, that much porn?

Only 1 GB left on my 4TB drive (2.82TB porn)
Originally I wanted to sit it out and wait for SSD become big enough but this will take too long. I also have massive amounts of excellent education courses from the teaching company (TTC).

Once space got tight I started to delete my C and B-class porn and only left the best of the best porn. But there is no bad porn left.

Why download lower grade porn to begin with? I can't fathom using that much of my storage for porn. I only download what I consider to be top quality.

I have something like 13TB filled with nothing but anime. Still need more space for more.

Why not just ask me to stop breathing?

Ok, maybe not all the time but I never save anything anymore. Mostly sadpanda and then purging my history and temp files afterwards.

>Why download lower grade porn to begin with?
When I start to like a girl or a site I rip the complete site or all of the girls scenes in the best quality available.
Then I sort it into A, B and C category and fap though it for a few weeks (of course not exclusively).

After some time I re-evalute the selection and then delete the B and C Folder.
What remains is only the best fappable stuff.

At some point I will probably create a 1TB Ultimate Elite Edition best of the best porn torrent. I already have the seedboxes but I haven't found the time yet to sort everything out.
>>
>>54397891
I tried not saving anything, the best shit always disappears
>tfw you'll probably never again see that video of the woman getting a bottle of coca cola poured in her ass and squirting it out

Why would you download porn, just stream it.

I'm always surprised that HDD sizes haven't increased by that much, at max we get maybe 1 TB per year increase...

prices also haven't really decreased

the current state of data storage capabilities is pathetic desu
>>
>>54397703

I think most of it is duplicates and different resolutions. It's completely unsorted and just a file dump for a couple friends' bit torrent clients. If I sort it and remove dups I bet it drops to 500-600GB
>>
>>54398059
It's because more people are adopting SSD tech and HDD tech is hitting a hard limit. While samshit already crammed 16TB of V-nand on a laptop 2.5" SSD, HDD manufacturers only managed 8TB for a big and bulky 3.5" HDD.

Looks like we're gonna have to say goodbye to HDD soon. 1TB SSD will soon be $100/piece and there will no longer be a reason to use HDDs.
>>
>>54397996
you may never seen it again. It might get taken off sites.
>>
>have 80gb ssd
>nowhere even near full
I don't keep anything. Seeing you guys fill terabytes and terabytes makes me wonder how it's even possible.

buy 1 tb hard disk 3 years ago, it's almost empty...

Cleared out over 500gb of apace on my 2tb drive the other day, felt real good. It was mainly large HD rips of TV/films but they were ones I've watched and won't watch again.

I do hoard quite a lot of music but that's not as large and I have a huge collection of live recordings of shows which you just won't find again online. I also have a big drive for video editing files but thats my job so I have to keep it around for a while.
>>
>>54396930
Mostly anime and a few games.

Fucking christ how? Do you exclusively download coalgirls releases?

I mostly hoard jav, animu and weeb music. Not so much into movies an gaymes so I usually delete them if/when I need them space.

When I'm desperate, I buy a bunch of dvd-r and start burning things
