how do you guys organize your drives and information?
i'm just wondering, i've got a lot of shit to spread around but i just got four 250gb drives (i can only fit 3 drives in my computer though). on the side i've got an 80gb, 200gb external, and two 180gb drives.

shit i've stolen. i thank my time living on campus with dc++. you've given me a good idea, i think i'm going to partition one of the 250's to around 80 for operation and program files and use the rest fo any video spill over.

Same. Break it all down to media, and then further into categories.

With 1TB of memory you should be able section off shit pretty well.

The most important thing is to STICK to it - have one section be your default Download section, and update it regularly putting shit where it needs to go. My HD's are a fucking NIGHTMARE right now. . .because Im so god damned lazy.

same here, i stuck to it for a while, but then i started saving stuff to my desktop, then when it got full just dragged it into a new folder and then again and again and again as you can see;

yeah i've always had a set "incoming folder" in which shit gets sent off from there. i try to make the best use of 'my documents' i can. i'll figure it out as i go along. hopefully i can just throw old shit into a 2006 folder and start a new 2007. i regret not using dates as a means to organize everything from the beginning. any tips or advice anyone?

Exactly what my desktop looks like, because its so much easier to click on "DESKTOP" when "Saving To" or "Extracting To" than sledge through drives and folders. . .but in the end, I cant find half the stuff I need, and when I swap out drives, I cant remember where shit is - not just the awesome porn I get a boner over everytime I watch, but important shit - like Taiwan Tentacle Titty Torture movies. . .

elstat that looks like my desktop with all the icons n shit

[elstatec]

i love how if you fill your desktop it keeps going off to the right, so then you just drag the stuff you can see and when you select align to grid a few months later you are surprised by a multitude of porn you thought you had lost

I have the same thing everything gets saved to Desktop so i don't spend ages hunting thru folders to find it, then I select all and drop it into a new folder cry:

Two 80 gig Seagates formerly raid 0. In this build raid was a pain in the ass and i saw no real benefit from it last build, so im just using them seperatly. One as the OS drive, and the other as the "media" drive.
