Eurgh, i typed out a large explanation but it wouldn't save. I'll be breif.
It all depends on the quality of size of each individual song and picture. One 3 minute audio file could vary from 3mb to 20mb depending on the format it is in for example.
Okay, if your songs are saved in the same location, I.E one big folder, right click on that folder and select Properties. This will show you how much memory this file is taking up and give you an idea of what size external hard drive you need.
It doesnt matter if there are folders within the folders either, you just need to right click on the first one you click on to access your files, for example, "My Music" may have different files inside it catergorised by Artists names or Genres but to find out the correct size you just need to right click on "my music" or whatever folder you store your music in.
Its the same with your pictures aswell, you just need to add both the files up that hold all your music and pictures and VOILA!
If you do not understand what i meen, a 500GB hard drive should be more than enough and you can buy them quite cheap these days from websites like www.Amazon.com or www.kustompcs.co.UK or alternatively, most computer stores.
Hope i helped!
And i hope those 6000 songs were obtained legally :P
