Answer: In computer terms HDD usually means Hard Disk Drive or High Density Diskette. The GB stands for gigabyte. So the 160 is meaning 160 gigabytes of space on the computer. * One gigabyte can hold over 1000 novels (uncompressed at 100,000 words per novel). * One gigabyte is roughly equal to 17 hours of MP3 music at 128 kbit/s (1,0003 / 128 / 1000 * 8 / 3600 = 17.36). * One gigabyte is roughly equivalent to 12 hours of Flash Video (at 450x370). If you wish to store pictures and media files, go for the highest GB's when purchasing a new computer.

It means the capacity of the Hard Disk drive (HDD) is 160 Gigabytes, or 160,000 megabytes (thats a lot of room for documents, photos and files). The HDD is the internal storage of a device like a PC/Computer.

At the time of writing, an 'average' internal HDD is around 320 to 500gb.
