That's not bad for a laptop drive. That was the size of my original drive before it crashed. It was a seagate, and that says enough...
(I don't particularly love seagates )

Hehehe, I'm back down to 620GB. That's not too bad though for me really. A 120GB SSD and a 500GB external drive.

You have Windows installed on the SSD?

I honestly have no idea where my harddrive came from, brand name that is. It came from a local tech chain or TigerDirect...

Ah, tigerdirect is pretty nice. They have good prices.
I got mine from compUSA, which probably isn't available in Canada. They actually got bought out by tigerdirect though, and their prices suddenly improved afterwards.

tigerdirect isn't bad. But our nearest tigerdirect is like 10 miles away so I usually either go to Best Buy or order it online

My nearest compUSA is about 40 minutes away. I don't mind the distance, but the traffic getting there isn't much fun.

My current PC is 300 gb storage, 4 gb RAM, Dual core 2.53Ghz CPU. And my laptop has 500 gb space, 2 gb RAM, Dual Core (I can't remember how much its in repair right now) CPU. My PC graphics card is a NVIDIA Quadro NVS 295. My laptop graphics card is just a plain old Intel HD.
Err what do I put here?<br /><br />I like Minecraft? I play Minecraft? <br />I play Sim City 4? I play Sim City 4?<br />I also don't like democracy!

so rather than post my specs... I've decided to make a video instead a picture is worth a thousand words after all... who knows how many a video is worth.

Thanks yeah it's still a real powerhouse even after 4 years :p just upgrade the video card every so often... because really it's going to take a while before an 8core cpu at 4.2 ghz is going to be obsolete lol.

AMD note the massive dual fan heatsink, it's overclocked from 3.5, but if I went with another mobo and watercooled I could push it up to 5
