An PC kept for entertainment purposes would need the large HDD to store audiovisual/multimedia files. These files generally range in size depending on their type but their better quality versions are usually larger in size.

For example: a 3 minute MP3 at 128 kbps (kilobytes per second) is roughly 3 MB large, the same MP3 at 320 kpbs can be 7 MB or larger.
