Do you really, really need that much disk space on a tablet? How in the hell? What do you guys keep on your tablets D: ?

So with real curiosity, what are you keeping in your tablets if 32gb is not enough?

Music or video? But how about all the streaming services? Also it is so easy to put movies and music to separate small usb-stick. And that way you don't have to worry what device to take with you, just attach the usb to your keys.

Just hoping to hear what I the reasons for huge disk space that I fail to see.

You're not really a computer nerd, are you? Sooner or later I manage to fill up every hard drive to the brink - even to the point that the machine isn't booting up any more - i.e. not enough space for booting up, installing linux, defrag, deleting/moving files etc.

Well, you say it, usb sticks are way too small. No way I'm ever having enough space there to put anything on I want. All seasons of Türkisch für Anfänger or 2 Broke Girls or Downton Abbey? What if i want to watch a documentary or a romance film? And I would have to transfer all the files before to it - a personal nightmare! No - I want the freedom of choice on any one of my machines. I want to choose someting to watch/read/listen to instantly, intuitively, spontaneously, out of the mood of the moment...!

I like to try things out - so different operating systems, multimedia players, streaming, games of course (1.420 0n Steam, about 480 on Gog), web radio (Kili Radio, webradio of Pine Ridge Indian Reservation), cultureunplugged.com, Journeyman Pictures, Vimeo On Demand, viki. com (Viki Pass), Amazon Prime Music/Video, rednation.tv, Spotify Premium... Not to mention emulation of classical computer games...

My machines can never have enough storage/space/RAM. After 3 external hd's became too messy I opted for an 8-bay NAS. Currently I've got 16TB built in (can go up to 32TB). I usually dedicate one sole 4TB hd for a single purpose - so 1 for Steam games, 1 for Gog games, 1 for Linux etc. You get the picture? To come back on topic I choose the Russian red Youyota + will buy a 256Gb sd card later. I opted for it because of the storage space, not because of the colour.
