Yep, but more a question of when and how much money you have
burning a hole in your pocket. As you use FC, I guess you will
be upgrading to FC3. If you are, I would hold of on the purchase
for a little while. When FC3 drops, get the drive and do a fresh
install. Then move stuff over from the old install.
