    Highest minimum requirement to share that you have noticed?

    What is the highest minimum amount you have to share in order to join a particular hub? I'm using my brother's computer so won't start on DC until I have mine sorted and everything. Last time I looked it was 1TB but that was about 3 years ago now...

    Wow, that must be a pretty exclusive hub if you need 1TB. Most that I've ever been in have had a 5GB minimum.

    There's no actual set minimum to join any given hub. They all have their own requirements. But I'd say 5-50 Gigs. 1TB seems like an enormous amount, considering the average power user has 500-750 GB hdd space.
    My current setup stats (like anyone cares...):

    ASUS A8N32-SLI Motherboard
    AMD 4400+ Dual-Core CPU
    Windows Vista (Ultimate 32bit)
    2 GB (2x1GB) Corsair XMS RAM
    2x250 GB (in RAID 0) HDDs
    EVGA GeForce 7950 GTX 512 MB
    Creative X-FI Fatal1ty XtremeGamer

    Also sporting a black MacBook
    Revision/Release 1
    Upgraded to 2GB RAM.

    Yeah. And large HDD cost a lot. Some people will have an allotted amount to share, have a copy burnt on blank media, and then any subsequent downloands to be burnt thereafter. Can't keep everything on one media just in case of failure...

    for The good dc hubs, usually the requirement is more concentrating on your upload speed, atleast I have noticed. Some good hubs usually require say 50g's but also a 10mbit up speed so all their users get what they want, fast.

    WOW 1 terrabyte? Glad I use newsgroups! If you ever get BUSTED with that much of your stuff on the site...I hope you have a very good lawyer! But I doubt even he would be able to get you out of doing jail time for that much.

    Good to see there's 1TB internal HDDs out. Question of how many you can put in your case. I've filled all my slots and one has the OS installed, which is 250GB, so that is staying. Think I'll look into 2TB internal HDDs when they arrive.
