I have 3 Tb But only 500 Gb for back up. So I back up my music, software, docs and photos. Not the movies. But i do have a lot of the original disks.

1x2TB and 1x1TB. Will add a 500gb once i get around to sending my lemon Seagate in for warranty replacement. If I need space, I burn to BD-25's or just delete it. I make space about once a month.. I'm pretty much always adding media. I currently have 17% free, altogether. I also ah ve a bout 200gb on my gaming desktop which is on the network.
That's 146 movies, 2055 TV episodes, 110 albums. And another 10% or each (or so) in stuff that is not found by XBMC scrapers.
Backups? not really. If i think i'll want to watch it in a years;' time, I usually do back it up to disc. Though sometimes i just delete it and grab it again in the future. I have generous internet and fellow media hogs for friends.
Uhh.. the new forums format doesnt; support polls?

My setup is a FreeBSD server running ZFSGuru to manage my zpools and services (like MySQL for XBMC, SickBeard, CouchPotato, etc). I have 10 X 2TB WD's in one zpool to hold apps, games, media (TV, Movies, eBooks, Music, etc), user files, and more. I have another pool of 4 X 1TB Hitachi drives for iSCSI volumes, download target for NZB's and torrents, and my recordings for Windows Media Center.
