An external HD would be the easiest way to go. Just plug it into an ac outlet and a USB slot and away ya go.

External hard drives are dropping drastically in price so get the largest one you can afford.

You can add another drive and install your software there, no need to install Windows again. You can also keep all your documants there too.
