I have about 60GB of unlicensed anime stored on my hard drive. Also have some anime movies not released here yet. It includes one of my current favorite movies: Ultraman. :P Yes, I'm lazy to import movies. XD

I'm not even counting the ones recorded on CDs in the past... D:

Well, of what I' ve heard...to buy a new Pentium IV 1 Ghz here with something close to 60 GB of space, I would have to pay as much as 4 months worth of my monthly salary (when I began working that is!)...lol

Actually, you'll be surprised at how cheap some hard drives are nowadays. ^_^ Western Digital is always a good brand to buy, and here are some 120GB hard drives for around $60 online.

http://www.pricegrabber.com/search_attrib.php?page_id=11&form_keyword=western+digital+120GB+hard+drive&rd=1

Pricegrabber.com is a pretty good site for searching up prices. :)

And, of course, NewEgg.com usually have decently priced items up on the front page, like a 320GB HDD for ~$114 and a 250GB HDD going for ~$75. ;D

Depends on which type of processor you are looking for.

Athlon 64 +2800  -  ~$110.00
Athlon 64 +3800  -  ~$279.00
Athlon 64 X2 +3800 Dual Core  -  ~$293.00
Note: Dual Core processors are usually best if you tend to run many programs at a time. Having more than one processor sharing loads minimizes the chance of a slowdown in the system. For example, one can be encoding a video while simultaneously doing something else without having to worry much.

I've probably got around 500-700GB lying around. I lost track of it, since most of it is comprised of DVDs.
