Home Storage Management – Week 1
Uncategorized — By Chris Evans on November 26, 2008 at 1:00 PMSo after discussions on home storage, I’m going to do a weekly cleanup/report on what I’ve achieved. Here’s the baseline;
Main Server; 927GB of usable storage (via Drobo) – 768GB in use. (82.84%). In fact I’ve consolidated a pair of mirrored 400GB drives onto the Drobo to make the full 768GB, so I’ve already freed these drives to be removed.
Laptop;
C: – 103GB total, 75.4GB in use (73.2%)
L: – 38.7GB, 34.85GB in use (90%)
I’ve included both C: (O/S) and L: (data) as my offline folder is on the C: drive
Desktop;
C: – 57.2GB – 34.3GB used (60%)
D: – 97.6GB – 4GB used (4.1%)
E: – 274GB – 133GB used (48.5%)
So that’s the baseline. The first saving is to delete the Exchange backup – 314GB. More to follow.

Just thought I would chip into this one as I always seem to be buying more storage:
Laptop 1: 120GB – 78GB Used
Laptop 2: 120GB – 35GB Used
QNAP NAS: 1TB RAID1 – 350GB Used
Backup Disk 1: 320GB – 200GB Used (Mac Time Machine)
Backup Disk 2: 500GB – 350GB Used (NAS Backup)
Backup Disk 3: 500GB – 0GB Used
I will look at how that data is made up and post next time.
Cheers
