And seriously, how does one manage to fill a TB of data?
video, lossless-compressed music, backups from a bunch

I'll grant you the latter, but still... well, let's just say that that
40 GB tapedrive I mentioned is plenty for backing up everything I
admin.
Just imaging my girlfriends Thinkpad comes out to greater than 40GB
(compressed image size). Then there are all my machines and files.
I like to have both recent user file backups and also relatively
recent (monthly) whole disk image backups to quickly recover from a
failed disk. Re-installing Windows anything or even Mac OSX to a much
lesser extent, is a pain in the bum.
