    DVDRs. I have 120 GBs of space of my second HD reserved for anime, but I prefer to keep it at most 50% filled (and so I never need to defrag it). And partly because of that I burn series right when they are finished, or half finished (like 13 and 13 episodes of a 26 episodes series). So, I don't actually archive any series on HD at all. They are all just waiting for to be burned.

    And of course I have some movies and series as commercial DVDs.

    I have now killed 3 harddrives.........somehow.....

    I've only got one 250 GB HD left. I don't really keep my anime.....on the count that I can dl the entire series overnight and that it would cost a pretty penny to store em all. I keep like all the eps of the current anime I'm watching, and archive like One Piece but thats it.
    Don't believe in yourself, believe in me, who believes in you.

    Well, I have a bout 150 gig on my computer just for anime stuff, and if it does run out (which happens often since I'm too lazy) I panic and either delete everything I know I won't need/watch or burn the ones I might want to keep/re-watch later, everything else stays in the hard drive.

    I watch it, then I delete it. I'll just download it again if I ever would get the urge to rewatch a show. Which is very unlikely.

    Currently have around 500gb of hard drive storage, recently added 300 more so guess i'll be fine for a little while atleast.
    Some series gets deleted instantly after i've watched them and i just leave some to be dealt with later. I always had to start deleting something when i wanted to download something new and now in the end only the ones i didnt want to delete remains... so i had to buy a new HD.
    But many series also gets archived on DVD's, many because of my lazy friends that rather burn them from me than download it themselves.

    I dont archive. I just leave it there, and when my HD gets full, just delete some of it. I never rewatch anime anyway, and if my friends actually want to see it, I just download it again. It would also be quite inconvenient to archive everything Ive watched, since I cant keep count of it anymore, and its just too much of a pain remembering the good ones.

    Peace.
