When a HDD is nearly full.................

[Trifid]

What do you download to do that? (I need ideas to fill a 250GB awaiting delivery.)

 

[Nubius]

lots of anime and porn :freak:

my torrents run 24/7 pretty much. Only time they are down is if I'm gaming, which isn't often, or if the machine is restarting.

I generally set my machine to reboot at specific times and then my torrents automatically resume at system start up

That will be 24 (twenty four) for me, - season 4 and 5. And now I am stuck. :/

 

[Nubius]

Download the TV series Firefly, then the movie Serenity.

Then...........................take up anime and you'll have no problem filling it up

I don't get anime... (as in I don't understand it.) I watched Pokemon 7 years ago though....

your worried about 24gigs, i only have about 3 gigs free cause im running on a 40gb drive.

i've got about 15 gigs left on my 40GB drive, but i've got a 200GB on order right now, just being shipped from TD

What's to get? It's the same as any other cartoon on the planet. It's not like all anime is the same. Pay attention to what's happening and the story being told. Only time you dont have to pay attention to a story is something like Family guy where there IS no particular story.

I have 2 40GB HDD's

First one 3.68GB Left

Second One 18.1GB

The first one has all of my games on it, except one (oblivion). Second Is were all of my music/torrents go.

I have to defrag the both of them pretty soon. I just start to download O & O Defrager, im gonna try out that program, it has to be better than the windows one.

Yeah, it's better by about a million times lol. Windows couldn't defrag that one drive I just posted at all. Kept saying it couldn't move a lot of files.

That O&O Defrag got it to how you saw it where it was solid blue and white lol.

 

[jonny_uk]

you should see my 200GB hard drive. That drive has nothing but downloaded torrents on it. It got up to 70% fragmentation before, it was ridiculous.

Infact! I've got before and after pictures lol.

200gb before defrag:

200gb after defrag:

I used O&O Defrag for that, great program.

But yeah, my 200gb runs out of space every other day lol. My downloading is ridiculous, it stuns even me sometimes.

I've got 30gb left out of 360gb right now and that's only cause I recently deleted 20gb of stuff.

Amazing, you cant get any better than that
Ill have to download that i think!

So when my one main hard drive starts to get really full and i notice the system slowing down etc, will adding a second bigger one make it ok agian or will i have to get some stuff of the main hard drive(one with win xp on) and put it onto my new one? i guess id have to wouldnt i?
