Hd For Linux

Oct 18, 2005 4:52PM PDT

I'd like to try Linux, but don't wish to confuse my already over complicated windows installations. I thought I'd buy a new small Hard Disk ot experiment with. I know this depends on data, but what would be a good size of disk tot deploy?
Thanks in advance,
Paul

It would be hard to buy a new hard disk that would be too small for Linux. But a minimum number could be 10GB.
