I use an external HD.

They are great and inexpensive. you just put all your music and movies and it then when you download Itunes and change the path of the library to the directory on your external. The draw back is that it takes longer when you sync your Ipod but the upside is that your computer will run faster becase it will have much less on its main HD.

To change the directory of Itues go to Edit --> Preferences
Click on the advanced tab and copy and paste the directory location from the external into the box.

Make sure the "Copy files to Itunes music folder when added files to library" is checked. Otherwise any new files will go to your C: Drive and everything will be split up.

Good Luck.
