The hard drive capacity you need depends on how you will be using your computer. Capacity requirements can increase with the number and size of program applications installed on the computer, as well as the amount of data you plan to store on the hard drive. Desktop Computers and Workstations Desktop and workstation computer systems usually need 80 GB to 750 GB of hard drive storage capacity. A computer used only to surf the Web and check email requires less storage capacity than a computer used to create and store documents, websites or multimedia content. You should consider how you use your computer when choosing drive capacity. Large program applications, graphics-intensive games, desktop publishing applications and Internet caching all contribute to the need for increased hard drive storage capacity. Home Multimedia Computers Home multimedia computer systems usually require large amounts of space to save music, photos and videos. If you are using this type of computer, you should consider hard drives of 250 GB or more. Audio/Video Computers Audio/video computer systems usually need high performance and high hard drive capacity to create content and store the finished files. 73 GB to 300 GB hard drives usually meet the need for editing audio/video content. Storing large amounts of high-quality video takes more space and may require a multiple-drive storage array.
