50/60GB filled... I may be storing some stuff on my bf's HDD too...

Well, on my internal (93 GB formatted) hard drive, the Windows partition (43 GB, NTFS) is about 40% full and the Linux partition (48 GB, ext3) is about 25% full. There's also a very, very small (47 MB, FAT32) partition with important school/work documents backed up on it that's only about 12% full. There's also a 2 GB Linux swap partition, which I believe accounts for the rest of the space. My external hard drive (150 GB formatted, all FAT32) is about 52% full, with a full 36 GB being music, photos, and movies for my iPod, and the rest games for both Windows and Linux (meaning over 12 GB of UT2004 between the two installations of it, cowabunga).

Its only 60+60+320+40=480GB ... you can get one HDD that it larger than that these days.
Although I don't need them all I just use them since they are sitting around, after being pulled out of systems that were sold or upgraded -
I have a 40gig 5400RPM drive right now that is 62% full.
-
Other- 19.15%

My 80 5400 rpm drive is close to 75% full. I need to get a second hard drive.

Internal notebook: 34%...25GB used on 80GB hard drive.
External: 10% 16GB out of 160GB used. -
around 70% full. I only get to use around 50GB of my 60GB HDD though, as theres 10GB dedicated to a recovery partition.
Gonna get that 10GB back one day when I do a format and clean re-install of my whole notebook. -
Normally ends up full, but I do video editing, right now got 3 Mini-DV's on the hard drive which take about 10GB each, plus 40GB of music and it fills up pretty fast.
-
I have used around 40% of the 80GB hard drive. Not too high of an usage I guess, but then again I reformatted it a few months ago.

2 100gb internal drives. Drive 1 is about 65% full. Drive 2 is about 30%.
-
92.9 GB formatted. Around 20 GB used (not quite sure on exact, I'm not on my notebook right at the moment). I'm paranoid to have more than 20 GB used and I don't know why. I want to get an extrenal but don't need one yet.
-
A crappy, old 30 GB hdd (at a blazing fast 5400 RPM according to cnet.com review). Keep in mind, I recently reformatted. Before that, when I was messing around with some Linux VMs through VMWare Player, I had gotten as low as 800 MB left! That was fun. -
Hm, not bad hd, at least your is 5,400 rpm.
JC -
1000GB....1GB full
-
I have 8.4g out of 60g used. I use a network share on my desktop that uses a 2*120g raid for backup. I have learned to not keep important files on my c drive. It seems that everytime I get more than 50% of a drive full, its seems to go bad. I have never had a drive go bad with less than 20% used.
My first actual hard drive was 140MB. Next came a 850MB. I could never afford alot of hard drive space and have learned good HDD house keeping. If I dont use a program every week, I remove it. I always archive to cd backup or upload to my network share. -

wow i have a 80GB on my desktop, and its about 60% Full...
-
80 gig hd 10 gb's left

I have 6.3Gb left of a 60Gb drive but I have 4.3Gb of DVD data that can be erased as It's only used during burning, so around 10Gb left of 60. I also have some games installed that I could easily uninstall if I needed more room.
-
heres mine: 80GB total, 41% used, so thats about...29.2GB used, and 41GB left

100 GB, 50% full, Two partitions, each at 50%.
-
52GB / 88GB (this technically should be 100GB)

I have a 100Gb drive that is around 75% full.

My Windows partition is 60GB, and it's filled to about 75%, Linux is 40GB and is about 40% filled. I think I'll get a USB enclosure and a new 160GB drive, and see if I can resize the partitions a bit. Put Windows up to 100GB, Linux to 60. Games take so much damn disk space, especially since I keep the disk images on the drive so I don't have to carry the optical disks with

where is the ~<3%
mine is 1.2gb left out of 80 (with 1 gb page file) -

80 GB, 5400 rpm, 8 MB cache hard drive from Samsung which has 11 Gb free now. I needed to put my movies on another notebook because I could not install my games anymore, so I went for 100% full.

Looking to get a new one actually, thinking of an 80Gb Seagate Mommentus 5400rpm SATA drive.
-
About 75% full, 500GB on my desktop. My old laptop is currently almost empty, and ready to be sold as soon as my dv6000t arrives.
I have alot of ripped and compressed DVD .iso files on the drive, as well as 1 full DVD 9 (video and audio TS folders), and the same DVD file compressed to DVD5 format. I also have a few home movies, and about 1000 or so photographs... I am a shutterbug fellas, it isn't porn or anything.
On my external drive (500GB Lacie) I am about 25% full. -

I can't comment on my current laptop but my last one was about 60% full. However I saw a few of the posts and the one on the first page was interesting. However if you think that is alot then here is my desktop.
3 internal hard drives and 1 external hard drive. All 200GB a piece for 800GB total.
Internals:
1 is about 30% full (OS drive)
1 is about 80% full (DVD storage)
1 is about 75% full (downloads and firefox profile information)
The external drive is about 94% full and that one is used as my server drive. Time to expand that one.
Oh and I used to have a 120GB drive but I gave that one to a friend. -
100gb HD (96gb effective)
Partition C 5.6/15.2gb free
Partition G 22.1gb/31.2gb free (need to install Fear, Fear EP and Oblivion when I can be bothered. Sitting around for 2 days)
Partition M 10.7/34.9gb free
Partition P 10.4/11.7gb free
Partitions for OS, games, multimedia, programs and to temp put DVD rips in that order if you're wondering -
How filled your hard drive is at the moment?
