240 gb is pretty big. I don't think a 500 gb drive is necessary, what I'd do is use the 240 for now, give it 6 months and see how much of it is filled up. That'll give you an idea of whether or not you will eventually need to upgrade - but I really really doubt you will.

BTW, I'd imagine the laptop actually has 1 hard drive of 240 gb separated into 2 120 gb partitions. I don't think I've ever seen a laptop with the physical space to install 2 hard drives internally.
