How much space do I need?

[TeamBills]

I'm debating between getting a 120gb hard drive or a 320 gb hard drive. These are the cheapest deals I could find.

I'm going to buy a few RPG games (not decided which ones) on it along with 2 racing games. (rfactor,nr2003)

I'll have a million documents. I back them up with mediafire but I still want them on the computer. I'll have a gazillion documents though, I put any and every writing tip/good writing from someone on my computer as I want to be a writer when I get older.

I'm a computer n00b but I wouldn't think documents would really take up much space.

The 120 I didn't think would be enough space. The 160 was 4 dollars cheaper than the 320. So I decided to get the 320.
