    1TB but I find it foolish to have just one giant drive. Should have a smaller drive as the C drive and a giant drive for storage. You can partition a monster drive all you want but if the drive fries you've lost everything. With 2 drives your data is safe on the second storage drive if your C drive fails. A nice setup is a 75 or 150GB 10,000 rpm Raptor as the system drive and a big SATA 3.0 as the storage drive. You can then back up your C drive onto the big drive in case your C drive decides to take early retirement.
