As far as hard drives, buy as big as you can afford (and, of course, as big as your system will support). Saying you'll never run out of HDD space is like saying you'll never need to eat again....

You need to post your system specs. At the very least, the make model of your motherboard. You realize that a new HDD won't make your games play any better, right?

I think i decoded this mumble jumble.
"the games use lots of space but making dvd use more if i can pot more slave on i could hold more .can u do this?"
The games use lots of space but burning DVD (for the games) use more (space). If I can put more slave (hard drives) on, I could hold more (games). Can u (I) do this?
If you put more "slaves" or hard drives in your computer, then yes, you could hold more games.
