It depends on the size of the pictures.

If 1 picture is about 1MB, then 1TB= about one million pictures

A small picture may be 100KB, then 1TB= 10 million pictures.

Disk manufacturers make various claims which depend on the size of picture they think is typical.

It's tough to say specifically as each picture file size varies. At the highest quality setting, on the highest, currently available, general use camera, at worst your file size would be about 1MB. At 1TB you'd be able to store over 1 million pictures .

Remember your mileage will vary. If your pictures are taken at say 'half quality' you'll double your amount to 2 million and so on. On average though, you'll be able to store literally hundreds of thousands of pictures.

P.S. DO NOT use only one hard drive for all of your pictures. If you do that, and you don't have a backup then your pictures are LOST FOREVER. If you're going to use one for a picture store, buy a second and make a copy. The extra 100 - 200 dollars you spend is worth not losing every picture you've ever taken.
