Yeah....you can....
A new hard drive would do the trick. Set it up as a secondary drive. I am currently running 2 hard drives on my system. I have one hard drive with Windows Vista Ultimate RC2 on it and my other drive has all of my documents from when i had Windows XP.
An external hard drive would work too. You can either buy one premade, or you can get a kit to turn your internal drive into an external drive. It would plug into a USB port and when you plug it in it will install itself, you will be able to access any file you have saved on your external drive as if it were internal.
When choosing a new hard drive. Get one that is bigger then you THINK you will need. I never thought i would fill 120gb as quickly as i did...but that was a few years ago. Files are getting larger, and so are the system requirements.

Yes. You can buy both internal and external harddrives to add more space to your computer.
I'd recommend going to your local computer goods store (CompUSA, Best Buy, Circuit City, etc.) and asking one of the sales people to help you pick one that will best suit your needs.

You could buy an extra hard-drive, which is what I did. It cost a fair few, but I've had it for three years, and it's not full yet.
