Hard drive questions

[Jsousa373]

Hey
Building a new computer and was thinking about putting this HD in:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16822136053

Do you suggest anything else? Should i do two small HD';s instead of one large? If so which one? I am trying to stay in the budget range right now so if you could find a good HD for a good price that would be great!

Thanks

That's a good price for that sized drive seen there. Eventually I will being planning to add a pair of 500gb drives in an array here. If you are planning to run a large number of programs like multimedia, video capturing, or anything that soaks up hard drive space a pair of them at that price would work even better.

If you are only web browsing a single 160gb will work for the $59.99 price seen at http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16822136036 It really depends on the space you need or simply want available. At present I run two 250gb ide models here. But I also dual OS often. An array would increase the storage capacity much further.
