Yes, I do too... So the answer is smaller disks in order not to
accumulate so much crap! ;-)

I have to say, most of mine is useful stuff. I have smaller files that
show the wiring for my car speaker system. I have documents that I sent
to Social Security and State offices concerning my disability. I also
have some financial info, encrypted of course, stored here. My smaller
stuff is important to keep. My larger stuff is videos and camera pics.
Just as examples:
9.4G /home/dale/Desktop/Music
1.1T /home/dale/Desktop/Videos
16G /home/dale/Desktop/Documents/Camera-pics
5.2G /home/dale/Desktop/Documents/Kathie-camera
4.4G /home/dale/Desktop/Documents/Recipes
That's just a example. You may notice, videos is by far the largest
thing I have tho. It takes up a LOT of space.
I may could clean up some of that stuff a bit but it wouldn't be much.
I generally store stuff in a temp location until I know if I need it
long term. Stuff like exploded views of my washing machine. When I
know it is the right one for my washing machine, I move it to a
permanent location. If it turns out to be the wrong one or I can't fix
the appliance, I chunk the appliance and then trash the files too. I
also keep the last two versions of sysrescue for my USB stick. That
reminds me, I need to test the latest one to make sure it works, when I
reboot again. :/
Yea, I'm one weird cookie. lol
