Is that too much storage?

Could i just buy one and be fine? That is a lot of storage in my opinion, pleasse help. Thanks in advance!
 
Solution
Considering Windows 7 can take up 20GB alone, a 1TB drive isn't too much storage. You could just use the 120GB SSD for the time being, but that might run out of space too quickly. Get the 1TB drive as well.

Honestly that is the exact storage setup I wanted but could not afford. Its a fairly standard setup in a gaming rig. I WOULD up the GPU some of you can afford the extra 80 bucks or so to something like a GTX 760.
