I've got a 2 year old Dell with a 40G hard drive. The hard drive is nearly full (s**tload of mods and music)and I'm not sure what to do about it. I can't/don't want to buy new computer.

 

Can I replace the hard drive with a larger aftermarket drive? Could I, a computer moron, do it? What are my options?

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

assuming that you've got a spare connector just adding a second drive for storage etc. is the easiest solution.

Should be easy to do.

I have added a second hard drive It's is easy. If I can do it you can! :crazy::good:

 

Ironically, I did just that today. I threw in a 160GB hardrive into an empty slot, and added a better graphics card at the same time. So far so good, evreything seems to be working OK so it doesn't seem like I screwed anything up.
