      My bad. I thought it was 80GB...Oh, well.
      It's still a good price, usual 40 GB hard-drive's for computers having hefty prices. It seem's okay to me.

        I do not think raid is a good idea.... what if you got to take one out? You could lose half your files. It is best just to keep them as 2 seperate. That way you do not have to buy 2 os the same.
        Plus, you can keep multimedia files (or just any large files) on the secondary HDD while having your main files on the main drive. See? like me.... I keep all my games and anime on one HDD and my main HDD has all my programs files on (main HDD is small, second is large). Seeeeeeee? Better........

            My second is ONLY 14gb.... 40 is ALOT of space you large files... unless you're an ANIME, Music (in wavs), Movies (in uncommpressed avis), or something it wouls be low amount.

              Heh, that's me. I started out with 18 gigs on my harddrive a year ago, but managed to fill most of it up with mp3s, images, an overload of texts and of course MPEGs and MOVs. The internet is a wonderful thing, isn't it?
