I've got 17.6 GB, and appearantly im just scratching the surface.

kep it up though! but a good idea is to delete "worthless" aircraft. it will bog down the system, espically when you want to change aircraft, it has to go through all the models.

use BBQHideAI for that, or put them in storage folders until you use them

Anyway, mine is bigger

You could save a lot of money if you used a couple regular dvds ;)

Those Dual layer dvds are a bit pricey

My collection is by no means as big as some ofyou guys, but I'm proud of what I've got, I think I have some quality stuff in here;

Aircraft folder:  1.39GB
Addon Scenery (as extracted direct from zips):  230MB
Addon Folder (all zipped):  2.7GB

Some of the add-ons I'm more thrilled about having in my collection are:
PMDG B747-400
iFly B747-400
Level-D 767-300ER (Acquired Today)
Kittyhawk KLM B737-800 (I love Holland!)
Just Traffic 2005 DVD
FSPassengers (What good's a plane without passengers?)
eDimensional Voice Buddy (The best add-on ever - you talk to the plane, and the plane talks to you!)
An extra 8GB global mesh scenery - TBA


Exams are over on Friday, and I'm then going to create a database of all my add-ons.  I don't know about you, but I prefer to keep original filenames wherever possible so it's easier to look them up later if need be on the net.  I'm going to set up the database with all my add-ons, with their fullnames etc.  So it's easy for me to say find all Jet Aircraft, or if I want to fly a Business Jet, or if I need the DUBAI International Scenery 2004.  Some may call it a waste of time, but I figure it's just being organised - all part of my general hard drive clearup.  I have 2 160GB drives and they're both nearly full - time to get backing up onto those blank DVDs which I don't have at present, lol.
