[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 994807"] I didn't intend to imply anything -- if I even *had* 30GB of porn, I certainly wouldn't store it on Google Docs! :) Generally speaking, text compresses down at a huge rate, but most standard formats for audio, video and images are already compressed, so further compression is usually minimal. If you have at least 60GB free space on your HD, you can try a simple test: create a folder with all the data you're talking about in one folder, then right-click the folder and choose "compress." Then see what the results are. [/QUOTE]
