Started when I was 11 maybe. I guarded my 2GB flash drive with my life. I was ecstatic at getting a 250 GB external hard drive for my birthday a few years later. I recall getting a family computer with the 1TB HDD option and thought “no way we could ever fill that up.”
Still in my 20s, but now I’m running a NAS with 16TB usable space.
I guess I’m somewhat similar in that regard. 2001-ish I thought I would never fill my single 160gb hard drive when I was 13. Between then and probably 2012 I collected things but very casually. Then it took off a bit. Capacity is now in the hundreds of TB. Just realized my flair is a few years old. It’s much higher now.
