You do, however, need to plan how to back up that much data quite carefully as it would be slow to do a full recovery. In 6-9 months or so blu-ray should also be an economically viable option.

There was a tremendous sale of 500 gig hdds at Staples...$89.95 each, then a $50.oo rebate thru the mail.... I couldn't resist to get a few. They are Western Digitals...real nice on the rack I made.
