You would need to format the 1.5TB drive as FAT32. Not very efficient.
A good way to do it would be to have a small FAT32 partition, then move it over under NTFS partition and even zip it, and put it in your 1.5TB drive.
To move partitions without re-formatting, I would recommend Easeus software - it is free.

Greg:

Tools -> Options -> Files -> Default Directory

just change the path found there to your 1.5T drive

Also you have to remember that many Terabyte drives come preformatted using FAT32. The internal drives are usually SATA devices, so make sure your computer can handle SATA i/o. Most newer computers bought in the last 5 years handle SATA drives.
You have to first format the whole drive to NTFS. The partition it appropriately and format a small chunk with FAT32 again.

zulu: Since you do not have any useful suggestion, kindly butt out.

He is buying an INTERNAL drive and currently all INTERNAL drives that are 850GB to 2 TB are SATA drives, requiring a SATA connection on the motherboard. A majority of them come preformatted as FAT32. If you keep on interfering, he will end up with killing a new TB drive for incomplete formatting.

I don't think you can get larger tahn 500GB in a EIDE drive.
Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB Hard Drive - 7200 might fit your bill.

However, I would suggest you buy a cheap addon-card, such as
Masscool XWT-RC018 SATA/IDE PCI Card
Masscool XWT-RC018 3-Port SATA & IDE PCI Card - 2 Internal SATA, External SATA, Internal IDE, SATA 1.5Gbps Support

It is available for under $25 and then you can add a true internal 1.5TB SATA drive. When you are formatting, make sure you do a complete Drive NTFS formatting and then partition it and reformat the partition for movies to FAT32. Perhaps the current technology might allow NTFS partition for your movies, - I am not sure about this.
