Anyone else have large drives that they have either all, or almost all of their games installed to, and find themselves spending more time making sure the blue pending update status of a game is gone, rather than actually playing a GD game?

edit adding context I have 4x 1.92TB Enterprise SSDs in a Raid 5 for ~4.7tb of usable space. I'm just about at max capacity with about 280 of 307 games installed. I got the SSDs from work.

I'm like you bud. My home theater PC I have to have them all installed. What if I have a guest over that wants to play Assassin's Creed 2? Gotta have it installed.

I ended up doing a hardware raid on a bunch of 2tb SSDs, so I have a super big and fast 14tb drive
