Yeah, this looks alright:

Unless you're planning on downloading about 80GB of movies and music in a single day, I guess it'll be fine...

I might actually go for one of those options mentioned above, though I have to say, the disk is just way too small

I am completely clueless when it comes to computer stuff—so, what does this actually mean? Is an upgrade even possible?

It’s easy enough to just pop a drive in.

1TB equals 1000GB 😬 or you could go with 500 http://www.amazon.com/details/500gb-drive

You can also find used 160GB drives if you want; $33 you can find as many as you need.

I’d definitely go with a new drive—that 80 GB one is ancient, practically prehistoric at this point.

If you just toss in another 2 or 3 GB of DDR2, I guess that might do the trick.

Maybe you could look into getting some other components to go along with this.

you could also check out other parts for this build

that rig comes with 2x2 GB of RAM, which is plenty
so $267 toss in a new hard drive and it's good to go
