My download folder for UG and BG take up a lot of space. I wanna delete the stuff or move it to DVDs, but then I wont be able to seed it! Any one else? I mean, I have the room for it, but still.

There's quite a bit of progress being made on complete collections of the various DVD based consoles. So there's even good reason to keep a large HDD array.

I have three hard drives in my PC, and all of them stay mostly full. I have a 1TB with my Linux and Windows 7 installs, plus whatever software I have on them at the moment, and the files for whatever art projects I might be working on, plus various unsorted downloads. I have a 2TB drive used mainly for music (mostly FLAC format) and also for fansubbed anime, tokusatsu, and Godzilla movies I've downloaded before they get sorted and burned off to DVD or Blu-Ray. Then there's an external 1TB hooked up via firewire for backup and archival of important files from my OS disk.

That's not counting the 500 GB drive in my PS2, or the 350 GB external drive hooked up to my Wii, both of which are about 75% full, I think.
