About 12TB's across all machines (3.5TB's in SSD just in my main rig), spinning rust I have about 30TB's and running out of space due to movies, TV series, music, and RAW photo & video backups.

2.5TB. total
Spread across 8 drives.

Might be another one sitting in a media player or something but if so it would only be another 120gb or 256gb.

Nope.

My (tiny) file server has small boot ssd and a 4Tb drive so I do have some storage but not much and it's easy to maintain (4th external).
I'm not much of a digital data hoarder and while I have a large collection of physical media stashed away I mostly stream stuff these days or watch then delete.

I've done the massive storage thing, it's kind of a hassle between drive health, power, upkeep, curation and backups, all for a bunch of stuff I'll probably never watch again. Chances are that if I ever do get the urge to watch a show I deleted years ago odds are I can find it online and watch it in minutes so why keep a copy? I do keep some favorite things on file but it's pretty limited and usually either hard to find or special editions, things like that.

Lets see, 256gb boot drives x2 (including mum's computer which I don't use), and 120gb and 64gb former boot drives sat in a pile on my desk so that's 0.633tb total, allowing for the marketing scam reduction.  My main (only) spinning drive is only 0.91tb and could be half empty with no data lost (it has my music library in flac and wav) (https://cdn.geekhack.org/Smileys/solosmileys/laugh.gif)
