Games, for some reason when I got my dell (never again, maybe) a year and a half ago I got a 40 gig hard drive. Then when I got a second internal HD it was also 40 gigs. I'm a tard. Easy fix is an external which I could use anyways. :P

No, get one that supports E-sata. Esata is much faster than USB2 or Firewire. If your PC ain't older than 3 yrds, your motherboard should already have Sata connectors. You can get a ESATA interface bracket for less than $10.
