my main system is in a tiny case that has a 120gb hdd and a 32x cdrw in it. If I need more storage then I will add another hdd or two to my other watercooled system (it has plenty of room for HDDs) or just throw together a dedicated file server.
I have comps around the house to do different things (living room for playing mp3s, and for recording music of digital piano, notebook for couch surfing, etc etc). So I just build another computer when my needs change instead of having one monster. In places where quiet is needed then I watercool those comps.
