Kid's Football = Lotsa Video

Video of my two sons' football games takes up the majority of my video space. Roughly 100 Gb.
I record with mini-DV and transfer via firewire from camera to computer. Each game is about 5 - 6 Gb.
Photos, most of the time

As a photographer I have about 200 GB of photos on a mirror RAID, further duplicated on an external drive. At around 7MB per 8MP RAW file, and 50-200 MB per photoshop file I am working on, it stacks up very quickly, despite cleaning out the rubbish every now and then!
Other stuff like video is less precious and easliy backed up to DVDs, but the photos need to be accessible from my database.

Not all of it's video. Some of it's games loaded on my xbox's 250gig drive, and about 20gig's are for MP3's. But probably close to 300 gigs are dedicated to video. That will be growing once my external storage is up and running again so I can get rid of duplicates.
