Mark,

I put two 80gb drives in. I've got about 50 hours in best. I do hoard
stuff, but then after about a month of not watching that late night
film
that sounded interesting at the time, I do delete them. I can't say
that
I've noticed any difference in speed of the upgraded machine. One thing
that I did do was set the drives to be quite (there's a utility from
the
Maxtor site) for this. It make the whine of the disk less intrusive.
