Okay, so I called like 3 different times before making up my mind and asking for a refund just for the HD space that I ordered. They gave it back, plus the expedited shipping charge for the inconvenience. So now I have my system and can just upgrade the HD myself.

Jaline, I advise you to upgrade to a 7200 rpm drive, they're a tad pricier but do make a difference. The biggest of these are 160GB I think

what is it that you do that requires 160gb diskspace?
no offense but every time i come here, i always see your posts in almost every thread.
are you a motion graphic designer or something?

iamnotyourgirl, I have a lot of media that I have to store somewhere. I have an external drive but I prefer having some of it on the internal.
And no, I'm a web designer. So I don't need too much space. But I feel that 120-160 is standard now.

okay.
i have 120gb. then i have two 250gb external to keep all my work and other stuff.
it's better to keep your machine clean and have only what you need, i've been told. and have 2 externals so you can back up your backup.

yeah, that makes sense.
The reason I want to upgrade to 200 - 250 GB is because with the Mac OS X software and everything the 120 GB turns into just 95 GB left.

it is a PC 3.5" drive, you need a laptop 2.5" one, something like http://www.bargainfeeder.com/bar…
