[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 392592, member: 24160"] Yes the speed will be noticeable. Take a look at your current computer and see how much space you have used there. Add 20% and this can be a guide to what you may expect to use on the new one. In all likelihood, if you are putting things on your computer that would fill 160GB drive - like a bunch of audio or video files - the extra 40GB would probably not be enough space to prevent the need of an additional external drive for storage.
