Welcome from another Northwest Georgia native! You will find the Cliff Notes, Wiki, and the forum in general as an ocean of knowledge and valuable tips. I have learned so much from all of the users on here.

if you can get ahold of a used Small form factor PC that holds 2-3 drives. thats a good start.
A solid choice is the HP Elitedesk g4-800 SFF which natively supports 2 full size hard drives, and a SSD drive for Windows.
