Is 500GB excessive for a External Hard Drive used for storing my photography?

I'm looking for a external hard drive to back up all my photos. I'm still a young photographer but I already have 154 folders with 13,600 photos. I've been told it is essential to back up my photos.

I would love 500GB but price is a factor here. I'm looking for $100 or less. So perhaps 300GB will be enough to hold me off for several years?

Any advice of how much space I can feel confident having?
--Thanks alot. Any links to purchases or reviews would be appreciated.
