I personally only have (128gb ssd + a 2tb hdd)
quite alot but not enough when having 5+ triple A games plus more hacking tools.

I wonder how much @mothered has because I think he's got quite the collection of tools and databases.
And I also wonder how much YOU have.
Reply with your storage space and if you are planning on upgrading!

I have a couple of 2TB external HDDs (secondary backup), and over 1.2TB of files- that's every file collected over a decade.

My other externals are 500GB SSDs, which I utilize on a daily basis.

Made the switch to a 500 GB SSD recently from 128 and it feels amazing (and is cheaper than when I bought my first SSD). I don't have to continuously eye storage usage every time I want to install something because MSVS and VMware installations + archived Windows "update" files pretty much hoard it all. I've been using 2 TB ext HDD for a while to place my games but starting them up might take a long while if they're larger. Considering a 4 TB ext HDD in the future for the long run.

My HP has a 500GB SSD Internal with a 2TB HDD. I don't really need an optical drive so I bought a caddy to replace it and mount the 2TB.

My Lenovo has a 250GB SSD Internal with 500GB SSHD that I grabbed from the E-waste box at work.

I currently have a 256GB Samsung PRO 850 SSD and a 4TB WD Black for games and movies.

I'm thinking to get a 500GB SSD in the near future

Personally I have a 2TB external and a 500gb NVME internal. Anything that is considered slightly on the 'iffy' side, I'll store on the external, you never know when you'll need to disconnect and hide it...

I’m looking to do this aswell. Was it possible to clone your old 128gb to the new 500gb?

Always have a few backups.

From personal experience, I've had two drives fail In as many days. Thankfully, I had my third external HDD. The same with USB sticks- I've lost count as to the number that have corrupted.

I was using an Ubuntu on my 128 and installed Windows on the 500.
