Best Answer

You can look at the settings menu under system information under system settings. It will let you know the original available memory and the current available memory. You will be able to figure out from the available memory the next highest GB. For instance on my 320 GB model the available memory was 298 GB. The different hard drive sizes are 20,40 60 80 120 160 250 and 320. The related link includes a chart of the hard drive size by model number
