   I bet there are plenty of 'lightly used' drives that came out of systems that   
   were upgraded that could be had for that.   
      
   Many (not the ultra mini ones) 'desktop' systems have room for a second HD. so   
   there would be no *need* to get a 'big' drive   
      
   XP can *span*  drives if having a new drive letter would confuse.
