Hard drive size is measured by Gigabyte. They come in the storage sizes of 8GB to over 320GB. A decent computer should have 20GB or over. Hard drive use 40-pin connection data cables. The hard drive stores all your programs, data, operating system, and hard ware drivers. The trickiest part of installing your hard drive is setting up the jumpers. Most PC's use IDE connection and accommodate two drives per cable. Connecting two drives (Hard Drive/CD-RW) to single IDE cable requires you to set jumpers; set first drive (hard drive) master and second drive (CD-RW) as slave. If you connecting the IDE data cable to single drive, set the drive jumper to master or select.
