I am doing some hard drive clean up and back up today so I decided to check how many pictures are in my RTH folder on my PC. 11,385 is the number of JPG files. I would say just about all of them have been posted here in the last 12 years. I resize most of my pics down for posting and still using 34 gigabytes  Chuck |

I had to scrub my Laptop's hard drive and portable backup drive over Christmas. Pictures add up, but the old video footage was killing me. I know I will regret using the delete key soon.

My pictures aren’t organized enough to answer that question, other than to say, “a lot.”

I don't really spend a lot of time taking rock pictures. I have a total of 10,041 images in my Images directory, This includes other interests as well including 246 fossil images from the Sternberg fossil museum in Hays KS, 259 Steam Tractor images, family images etc. In my Cabbing rough image database I have 1372 images I use to ID lapidary rough. This directory gets a lot of use and I am always on the lookout for new rough images

Can't beat you on rock picture files (9,000 some) but I probably hold the lead on video files lol. I have over 500 blu ray rips and 100 4k rips saved.. 84 TB server is 50% full

Adds up really fast. Chuck |

Adds up really fast. Chuck Oh ya, active video files are huge, esp if filmed in 4k vs 1080p. I have a lot of drone footage as well as large video rips and it eats storage fast. I switched to a new Synology server this year and I love it. |
