[QUOTE="trishajam, post: 1354694, member: 231687"] I recently bought a new iMac 21.5" and found that I will need more than 500 gb of storage because I installed Windows 7 so I can play some games. So here are my questions/dilemas 1. Can I take my iMac to an Apple store have them upgrade my HDD? 2. If not, would I be able to run Windows 7 and play video games through an external hd? I've once had to use a USB drive to run my old Macbook because the hdd died on me so I temporarily used the external to use it and within a couple of weeks, the external had slowed down and could barely run osx. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks. [/QUOTE]
