4 TB on an external USB HDD (with a 4TB backup!) +
615 GB unsorted on another external USB HDD (also backed up!).
Looking to get two 12 TB drives soon though as my 4 TB is chock full….
Comprised of mix compilations, live mixes, a limited number of music videos (Bunker Sessions FTW!), single releases for DJ-ing as well as mixtapes from the 90's.
I too am afraid that a lot of the stuff publicly available will disappear so prefer to download and keep my own archive….

You can never have enough storage.. mine is centrally on a NAS although it too has hit the ceiling capacity that I have available at the moment... last count theres about 4TB with another 800Gb floating around that needs to be added.


Top work guys and girls !
I’m glad to see everyone is backing up their data to.
It’s very easy to store the 4-5 mixes I keep on hand. Just back them up to usb drive

I have always been sceptical of relying on streaming alone. Some people have stopped collecting sets.
But a lot of stuff just disappears from Soundcloud/Mixcloud/YouTube/iPlayer/etc. with no prior warning.
Unless you archived a copy somewhere... good luck finding an active torrent for it.
The same can be said of films & TV series. Really not a good idea to rely on Netflix/Apple TV/Amazon Prime.

They actually never look like this. I once worked for a company who had their DR site merely separated by a railway line amongst many datacentre myths that you come across.
