[SOLVED] Build or pay for build?

Solution
They aren't terribly difficult to put together, so if you want more storage, that would certainly be worth it. As long as you have watched a few decent step by steps you should be fine.

Just make sure to consult the instructions that came with your specific devices as well. (Really, there are usually enough pictures and instructions included with computer hardware to get the job done as well)

Just remember that the things you are dealing with are small, and don't tighten screws like you are working on a car or bike. If you use a full size screw driver, use the strength in your fingers not your whole arm. Avoid electric drivers until you know what you are doing, or set them to their minimum torque settings.
