um…

1. if room is an issue… an external HD
2. Lots of cases have room for 3 Hd’s
3. probably better off just purchasing somehing like 300gb and your needs for HD will probably be fullfilled for a while. Remember to get the HD format that your computer supports
4. PCI IDe controllers are like 10 bucks for two channels (potentially two more HD’s )
5. soo many options its not even funny… Post what you intend to spend
