Data as in information (photos, contacts, messages, etc…), not your mobile internet allowance.
I personally just have photos and a few phone numbers that I can remember, probably around 10-15 GB including a few 4K videos. I have like maybe 20 GB of apps but they are re-downloadable so it doesn’t really count for me. As for PC, I rarely use computers these days, too tired and I’d rather lie down and stare at my phone instead, so I’m not even gonna count my PC data. How much data do you have and whats your total combined storage of all your drives?
Edit: Damn, some people got so much stuff! I personally am relying on faith that the internet and civilization doesn’t collapse so I download stuff whenever I want to watch them and delete them when I’m done with them. Y’all got doomsday bunkers planned out! 😆
How is everyone here indexing and cataloguing 10s of TBs of data???
I have like <8 TB combined probably if you count everything I have on my PC/laptop/cloud storage and I often can’t find shit and a bunch of those are full disk compressed backups that I can’t even search directly without opening it in a specialized program.
8tb worth of media with 3 replicas
My PC alone has about 8-10tb of unreplicated data
All in I have a raw capacity of about 160tb
I don’t really keep any porn saved since everything is just accessible online.
Mostly keep movies, tv, and anime but have started to also keep some ebooks and music as of lately.
I’m also a data hoarder so I just keep most stuff forever unless it’s a torrent or installer
I really try to go through my stuff and delete things I no longer need - more usually documents rather than media… I always worry I might remove something I realise I need later! So you are probably more sensible!
That’s how I started out too. You pick a few things here and there, next thing you know a few years later you build a server capable of storing half a petabyte of data. The important thing is to know when it starts becoming a problem. I am at 216 tb now, but I should be good for years to come.
About 4TB, mostly pictures.
