How many external storage devices do you have?

by Arnan Posted on August 3, 2008

Some small talk with some people over the past weeks made me think. How many external harddisks, memory sticks and cards do we actually own. Yes that includes the one from your camera too! But not your CD/DVD collection…

I did a quick count and came to 6. And a more thorough count went all the way up to 11.
Doesn’t sound like much… But still, 11 storage devices.

How many GB’s is that? Dunno… Quite a lot i think.
1x 320GB via Firewire (backup for iMac)
1x 320GB via Firewire (backup for Macbook Pro)
1x 320GB via USB2 (temporary storage for large files)
1x 120GB via USB2 (portable, when i leave with my bag, this thing comes with)
1x 256MB micro-SD (in my phone)
2x 32MB MMC cards (Nokia, unused)
1x 128MB Memory card (unused)
1x 320GB Ethernet disk (network storage)
1x 64MB CF card (System disk for my router)
1x 1GB MP3 player/Memory stick (unused)

A total of 1401.5GB (well over 1 TB). Including my computers it totals just over 2.8TB.

So how much do you have on the shelves?
