How many pictures will a 320 gb hard drive hold?

In: Hard Disk Drives [Edit categories]

Answer:

It's tough to say specifically as each picture file size varies. At the highest quality setting, on the highest, currently available, general use http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_many_pictures_can_a_1TB_hard_drive_hold&firstAnswer=1&updated=1&waNoAnsSet=1&status=T1BUSU1JWkVBTk9OWU1PVVNBTlNXRVJT#, at worst your file size would be about 1MB. At 320GB you'd be able to store about 300,000 pictures.
Remember your mileage will vary. If your pictures are taken at say 'half quality' you'll double your amount to 600,000 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 http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_many_pictures_can_a_1TB_hard_drive_hold&firstAnswer=1&updated=1&waNoAnsSet=1&status=T1BUSU1JWkVBTk9OWU1PVVNBTlNXRVJT# 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.
