I currently have a 500 gb hardrive which i have filled up quicker than i thought so I am looking at buying a 750gb samsung spinpoint f1 to run along side it. Is this possible and a simple job to do? thanks
Depending on the layout of your case yes, it's quite simple.

How the hell do you fill up a 500gb hdd ? I'm teasing but why not look to an external drive . If you have more than one computer as most of us do , you can just switch them around in a heart beat using USB .
Just a thought tho as I'm very happy I went that route .
Yeah but USB is painfully slow compared to an internal PATA- or even better, SATA- connection.
External drives are convenient I must admit but I prefer eSATA over USB anyday.

if you are out of slots to fix the drive in your PC. buy a normal HD and get one of the those cases which let you plug in a normal SATA/IDE drive to it. after wards you can use it as a external drive through USB.
If you only have 1 HDD then you should have room for at very least a 2nd. It is as easy as screwing in the HDD then pluging it in and then turning on your system
What Motherboard ar you using?
I don't really get external drives if you have hot pluggable sata it's almost as easy as using an external drive. Or you could use the money you save to get a router and share all the information on all your hdd's.
I only licked you for the salt
just open your case and look at how your current hdd is connected...repeat this process
