500Gb - RAID-5 means I have to 'waste' a drive.
I know, half a terabyte seems a little silly for personal use, but I've
probably got tenth of that already in divxs, aiffs (I'm a location sound
recordist as well, and I archive *everything*), mp3s ... and that's
excluding the archive of ISO9660 images that I've downloaded or created
myself.
