I have a 320GB hard drive in my PC currently and I look to see how much space I have left and I only have 20GB left. So I think i'm going to get a second hard drive but I have a few question. I only need the hard drive for extra space and need to know what I have to do to set it up? Will one be the main hard drive and will one be secondary or will it act like I put a bigger hard drive in it? I need to know what its going to do.
