Re: How big a Hard Drive needed?
Between 5 drives, I have 500 gb of storage, and they're all at 80-90% capacity (my OS drive is the only one at 50%). The shows tend to stay active for a long time, so I am forcing myself to burn to a master dvd or cd for long term storage and remove from the hard drive.
It's very very difficult. Once you get to a point where you have dozens and dozens of shows, it becomes important to have a system so you don't lose them.
1) Put all new stuff into a folder.
2) Once you listen to it, remove it from your bittorrent client and palce in another folder; keep or discard.
3) At that point, burn your copy for long term storage if you're going to keep it.
4) Restart the .torrent file at its new folder.
I recommend restarting the show even if you didn't keep it.
