But what I often run into are hard drives clogged with video and MP3 files. Usually if I can copy them off to CD/DVD media and then move to some external there is plenty of room.

Hello Everybody,
I recently pruchased parallel desktop and windows vista for my laptop...and then realized that they wouldn't fit. I basically need to get more space...My question is, can I just purchase one of those LaCie externals? Can you install softwares on them? Or should I just upgrade my internal ATA HD? I HAVE NEVER opened an MAC before, it just sounds freaking scary to me. Either way, what would be my best choice?
Thank you,
and have a pleasant day!
