I am running out of space om my hard drive pretty fast and was wondering what was the best solution as i don't want to lose all the information on my current hard drive, i was looking for a second hard drive with about 120GB on it, what would you recommend doing, and do you know of any good websites or shops to get them from.

Hi Shyco,
It depends on where you are. In the US you will find better prices at your local CompUSA, Circuit City, Best Buy, etc (after rebate). They also sell on the web.
I've bought several HDs through PriceWatch by selecting the lowest price for the size and brand I want. For example, a 120 GB Samsung is $91 from a vendor you've never heard of.
Installing is easy, but you might have to update your BIOS if you have an older MB so it will recognize the whole drive.
HTH,
