The capacity of the hard drive has no bearing on performance. The rotational speed of the drive, as well as the size of it's cache, however, do often have a noticeable impact.

If you can change pulley sizes to increase speed which way do you go?

Think about your ten speed bicycle. The bike is in the lowest gear when the front sprocket is on the smallest diameter and the rear is on the largest. On the contrary, when the bike is at high speed, the rear is on the small diameter sprocket and the front is on the large diameter sprocket. Therefore, increasing the drive pulley size will increase the driven pulley speed (assuming the drive pulley stays at the same RPM). Similarly, increasing the driven pulley size will result in a slower speed (again, assuming the drive pulley stays at the same RPM).
