My old computer that I'll be finally upgrading this summer has Win 95 installed and about 500 MB of hard drive space.

I enjoy backing up my hard drive on a single CD.

I have a 35, a 25 and a 15 = 75
I want a single larger one so I can get rid of the two smaller ones. Eventually.

It ain't the size of the hard drive the matters it's the amount of RAM you give it.

I certainly have to wonder what stretched your chassis enough to accomodate that...

I do a lot of video...I'm actually running out of space.

I only have 240GB of primary storage, if that helps.
