> you are a talented professional who takes terabytes of unique & engaging photos, disregard- but otherwise, as another photographer, let me suggest you focus on culling instead of storage.
Even among talented professionals, you are lucky if your "hit" rate creeps over 10-20%, especially outside of controlled studio lighting. I've always felt the amateur dream of "taking better pictures first time" ignores the reality that many pros have long shot in bulk and culled too.
I'd argue that the extremely un-glamorous secret to better photography for _most_ of us once a few basic composition rules like rule of thirds/golden ratio etc are understood is frankly to take many more photos, and yup, cull, cull, cull. This is precisely why tools like Adobe Lightroom come out of the box with such a heavy focus on keyboard shortcut support for zipping through an import and marking the winning images in a quick pass.
