iPod syncing problem

Just got given an iPod Classic for my birthday, very nice gift, but here's the problem I have with it.

It seems I cannot delete albums on my iTunes without it also deleting them on my iPod, it's so annoying!

I have a lot of music on a portable hard drive, about 50GB, and ideally I'd like it all on my iPod, but my little old computer can't hold that many at once - and when I try to delete them to make room, it goes and deletes the music from my iPod as well!

It's pointless having a 160GB capacity on my iPod if I can only fill a quarter of it at any one time. Is there any way I can get it to do what I want?

    Click the button that says something about managing music manually. it'll then probably wipe whats on the ipod, but after that it'll leave all the music up to you, and wont sync based on whats on your iTunes library, you'd then be free to add bits at a time, and then delete them from your library :)
