How much space should my hard drive have?

All laptops have an internal hard disk drive, usually 20 to 80 GB (20 GB is a reasonable storage capacity).

click my computer or this computer and right click on (c:) do properties and you see how much it have

Try using the external hdd 3.5 case for your 33.1 gigs.

dont listen to the guy below. 20 GB wont do squat. id recomment a minimum of 60 gigs more is better.

Kepp it at least 50 % empty for adequate performance.

It depends on what you use the computer for, if it is your main machine, if you store music, photos, etc. The operating systems and all of your programs will probably take at least 10 gigabytes of space. As far as music and pictures, 1 gigabyte will hold about 300 songs or 500 photos. If this is your main computer I would go with a minimum of 40 gigabytes. The reason I would say at least 40 is you start to see decreased performance as your hard drive reaches capacity.

Early laptops could have much smaller drives some had only 8 gig drives fitted, but you can replace them with bigger ones depending on the make.
