5 2TB hard drives in Raid 5 to back up all my anime.

Delete.

I only keep anime I really enjoyed and plan to watch again.

Everything else gets deleted.

Speaks for itself really.

i have a 2tb external hard drive to store my anime on

delete, I never rewatch anything ever.

Delete.

2 fast 2TB drives in RAID-1 to reduce chance of losing anything, and stuff goes onto DVD+R eventually if I need the space. I don't delete anything that I don't drop entirely.

watch&delete

I don't rewatch anything unless it has been more than 5 years since I watched it.

I'm a sub only fag. Just buy some external hard drives.

I just download and store in folders on my desktop pretty standard

non archive fags are small time. raid setup master race here.

Delete the anime, keep the well-seeded torrent file if I want to re-watch in the future. If it was not well-seeded, I keep it on my external drive and seed for others.

Currently I have a ton of stuff on my secondary harddrive which is a 1 TB drive, animu/mango/vns/other weeaboo shit takes up about 550 GB of that, I've never deleted anything, only ~50 gigs left, probably buying another harddrive soon.

i save it in an external hdd

I stream on animedreaming.com

Keep. I do not have the bandwidth to re-download as I please.

i backup my stuff, but i get the dvd/bdrips later, too.

I keep the ones I truly like.

I wouldn't backup shit like Kaichou or Angel Beats.

I download and then delete when I've watched.
Currently watching Casshern Sins, then I'll delete it.
Only anime I've not deleted are azumanga dioah, nge, planetes, cowboy bepop, ttgl, tenchi muyo and Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari

Keep everything. I refuse to let my monthly bandwidth go to waste.

I stream One Piece on Mega Video.

>>36990149
this

>>36990149
>monthly bandwidth
get a better isp then.

Keep everything and when I get close to limit I remove shit.

I have tons of animu stored over several drives. A lot of it I have not even watched and it's been sitting on those drives for many years. I dunno why I bother. I've wasted money and life.

>>36990223
No such thing exists in Canada.

>>36990115
>Mac
Well I've just filtered you.

Delete after watching
250gb hard drive is pretty limited

>>36990250

Good to know.

I know dubs only fags they say its too nerdy to watch it in japanese

Keep some delete some. Never stream.

>>36990267
pics or it didn't happen

>>36990243
Ah I heard Internet sucks in Canada, it's really expensive for low speed and it's capped and everything. Like a friend I know who used to Stream Starcraft had massive monthly bills because if raped his bandwidth :(

I stream because i am on shared bandwidth with 4 other comps and downloading too much kills it for everyone.

Stream and delete. I'm not much of a qualityfag.

>>36990267
My brother refuses to watch anything subbed. He says he cannot see what is going on if he is trying to read at the same time.

Don't understand why people save like 4 TB of Anime they'll probably never watch again.

>>36990347
You're brother sounds like a downs kid who can't do more then one thing at once.

If the show is good then I purposely download the same subs and save it. If it's a show I don't think I'll watch again I download whatever subs I see first and then delete it.

>>36990370
Most men are shit at multi-tasking.

>>36990370
>you're brother
>you are brother
Oh cool.

>>36990348
Neither do I and I am one who does that.

>>36990300
Yeah, it's not that great. My family pays $45 for 10mbit down and 95GB a month, managing how much I download is a pain. At least it's not Australia, though.

>>36990402
Then most men are thick.

>>36990402
But that's not even multitasking.

>>36990348
it feels good watching it build up.

>>36990412
Go do some work for a fansub group.

>>36990402
nigger, reading subs and watching a show is not multitasking.

Was a streamfag for a while because I never got more than 60kb/s on torrents, or the series I wanted to watch only had 1 seed/12 leeches

Then I stopped being retarded and realized you can direct download them. I delete for now since I only have a 120gb HD. I'll probably start saving them when I get an external after my next paycheck.

Delete and stream, 500Gb and a old computer that can barely play 720p videos. It requires that there is no other extra programs on the background so the video wouldn't lag.

I think I must have downloaded around 400+GB last month. No caps. Feels good man.

>>36990432
>95gb
Jeez, I'd get through that in like a week:(
I pay £10 a month for 20MB and it's uncapped.
Can dl/up as much as I want and no extra charges.

>>36990468
>>36990438
Trolled.

Delete it after watching unless I feel I'll be watching it again fairly soon. Got a small hard drive but a good connection so yeah.

>>36989883

delete

if I really enjoyed it enough to want to rewatch it at some point, I'll eventually grab BD / DVD rips or >buy

>>36990496

what are you 13?

you can even buy a goddamn 300$ netbook nowadays that can play 1080

Keep i all. I have so many things I've downloaded that I haven't even watched yet.

>>36990496

Ctrl+alt+del, open processes, set your media player's priority to Above Normal. My shitty computer can't sync video and audio unless I do that.

>>36990459
To be fair, tonnes of English speakers don't even use the correct, you're, there, which, weather, ect.
You can't expect people who speak English as a second language to get it right.

>>36990519
what isp?

save ts/dvdiso/bdiso, delete everything some filthy fansub encoder has touched

>1tb drive
>100-200 episodes
feels bad man

I keep stuff that's rewatcheable...like Seitokai no Ichizon. Most of the considered "best anime" I had I just delete them.

>>36990432
Still way better than mine. shared bandwidth and i download 4gb torrent and the internet is dead in the entire house for a day or two.

>>36990532

>download for HQ
>watch
>delete
>repeat

>>36990532
I think you don't know how trolling is supposed to work.

>>36990592
Sky.

>>36990432

>At least it's not Australia, though.

There are plenty of plans these days with 100+GB in Australia.

>>36990432
That's really not bad at all. I couldn't use that much bandwidth up in a month unless I chose to seed everything I download indefinitely.

>>36990541
I'm fine with this for now. I'm planning to buy a new computer anyway. When I buy something I buy almost the best thing there is so I don't have to buy anything couple of years later.

i used to archive things on DVDs until sub groups lost the ability to encode a series so that it didn't exceed 4.7GB.

it makes me sad when a 13-episode series takes 5.5GB of hard disk.

>>36990667
I download about 3-4 games a month at like 30gb tops.
Download about 4 Animes at like 20gb tops.
Still like 40gb to surf, game, dl other shit.
90gb is quite a lot really.

I keep it. Even though I may never watch them again, I still keep them just in case.

I watch SOME dubs. Such as Cowboy Bebop, Black Lagoon, Baccano! Shit like that. Everything else is mostly subbed.

2 - 2TB hard drives at the moment, looking at getting some more space, I keep it all and seed as much as possible. The ones I really like I actually go out of my way to buy the seasons, for example I own all three seasons of Full Metal Panic!(?) and the first season of Haruhi. Right now im also picking up the box's of FMA:Brotherhood.

I archive it as long it fits in a normal DVD. It's good to watch the collection building up.

Shit like >>36990732 says fucking piss me off.

>>36990744
If you alone used more then 50gb, it's not. He said his FAMILY, everyone in his house has to share 90gb. That's not a lot when shared like 3-5 ways, a month.

>>36990776
>>36990732

a 2TB hd costs like 110$. Get a job.

Keep them, want a collection of sorts. Fuck dubs.

>>36990732
>>36990776
You know you could just split them up, or change the quality, type of file yourself? No, of course not, because you're a retard and lazy. Jeez, I mean, it takes a couple of minutes, and how much do disks cost? like $5 for 50.
Fucking moron.

I keep a few series that I'll probably watch again but delete most of it.

Keeping several terabytes of anime that you've already seen seems stupid to me, are you really going to watch all of it again? But if you're not going to use the space for anything else then why not.

If for some reason I feel like watching something I've deleted I can just download it again, not like it takes much time/effort.

>>36990885

space is cheap. why not? this aint the 90's braaaah

Watch and delete right after watching. No reason for me to keep it since I'll most likely never watch it again.

750GB Hard drive, I've never gone below 500GB.
I delete most of what I download.
Keep a few Series I;ll watch again, classics and stuff.

>>36990590
>tonnes
Actually, you learn that type of shit in school, and no one messes up that fucking badly dude.

For new shows, I just watch and delete. Unless I really like the show, there is no point in keeping them in my computer. And even if I want to rewatch it, I could just download it again.

I keep them on my huge drives. I'll back them up when BDs hit less than $1 a piece.

>>36990864
yes because i *love* having 12 episodes of a show on one disc and the last one on another disc!

no, wait, no i don't.

>>36990798
No, I refuse.

>>36990864
Of course I could, but that's a fucking hassle. So when I really want to archive something, I use 2 DVDs or leave it in my HDD.

>>36991066
>Tonnes
Tonnes is the correct English spelling of the word.
Silly Amerifat.

>>36991098
I am 12 how do I computer hurrr.

>>36991066
>Reading comprehension.
Learn it.
Actually people learn that type of shit in Schools.

I guess I am really stupid for buying so many hard disks to keep stuff I am never going to watch ever again. I am thinking of wiping a few series and use the spare space for something else...but not sure what lol.

That which isn't out on DVD, I keep on my hdd. Once the anime is localized, I buy it and delete the files unless the localizations is horrible (IE Seto No Hanayome)

>>36991452
Buy??? Are you fucking rich?

I usually download, watch, and archive. Sooner or later I will have to offload my anime onto DVD-Rs as my external hard drive is running out of space.

I keep/burn only anime I plan to rewatch or ones I really enjoyed. Rest gets deleted right after I finish the whole series.

I archive what I can.
