Get western digital samsung is a dodgy mofo.

[smyrna]

yah good question:)

[sephex]

Get a Western Digital 1TB from newegg. The best value, should be ~ 125.00USD tax+shipping
I got 10 off with a promo code, gl.

[pussyliicker]

kk, Thanks for the added input, ill Add these 2 that came off Another site

Ruester
Western Digital Passport. I have one, it's small, easy to use, and it's usb powered, so you don't need a power outlet.
Check out http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCategory....

i agree with ruester, Western Digital hard drives are good and not to pricey. I've got a passport drive which i store all my torrents on, its a 320GB drive.

Only advice if you do buy one, get rid of all the transfer software that comes on it, its rubbish, v. slow and just plain annoying!

[PwnEm]

better to go for

internal harddisk + casing (you will save much and you can use both as internal and external) comes around ~ $115

[pussyliicker]

I Think i might by this 1 but ill have to get it some place else, because off Delivery thanks

Pros: Reasonable price's plus free shipping

Cons: Newegg.com does not currently ship internationally; we only deliver to locations within the United States and to Puerto Rico. :(

dont go for open box if you dont live in USA ... there are 100 % warrenty issues and the product is likely to go kaput.

[pussyliicker]

ok thanks, Whats the Differnce between open top And normal

[sephex]

Good choice, I bought the same model, I have still yet to put it to use (still sealed).
Open box= Refurbished
Normal=Sealed

open top? not sure what you mean.

[MovieMan]

always stick with WD! i have 2 of them and they havent failed me yet and i use mine excessively

[Slav]

I've got a WD ethernet HD. It's faster that your normal USB ones. Although I had a few problems with the proprietary software, once I scrapped the software it worked fine and hasn't failed me since.

Definitely got for WD harddrives.

[JinXy Poo]

this is the 1 tb external HD i have. it works great and it is very cheap:

[tony333]

WD drives are really good

[potential]

i have WD external HD
and It gone total lost once loosing all of my data
the warranty gave me a new one but the data was gone

then i understand that external are no good for working 24/7
they become hot very fast resulting in corruption...
if you use it only to save large movie/tv files that you use rarely its ok
but no good for any other reason(downloading straight to the external or installing games etc..)

[zaheersemy]

Buy 500Gb maxtor it is very nice and work fine

[xingronny]

I bought 500gb internal SATA hard disk.Used casing to make it external SATA HD.Its working fine plus cost effective too.:cool:

[pwuser]

well i bought a 1TB WD recently and i must say that i dont regret it

[possible]

Seagate Freeagent is good i have a 1 TB and works perfectly

[metroidman]

got it

[EwJim]

I'm using a Seagate Freeagent|Go with my laptop, it's tiny 500gb and doesn't make a sound. Absolutely dig how it looks too.

[shilex]

i work in a pc shop and i must say we sell almost all the time WD and when we sell other brands because a client ask for it most of the time we see them back broken.
Myself i have now 2x250 wd internall and a 500 gb wd mybook externall and a samsung 750gb internall and i must say wd rocks

[z3r0]

Barracuda 1 Tb..its so fast i really like it..

[savit]

Samsung 120G use... :)

[MidTown]

now 1tb is around 100usd

[darshany2d]

lacie
if maintained it wont give up on you

[derfadelic]

Yes yes....WD 1 TB hard drive only set me back around 150 or so...but I was lazy and went to Best Buy! Saw it cheaper online though. Depending on what you DL I'm having a hard time filling up 1 TB LOL

[machia]

Don't get anything that isn't a western digital

[(C)ramp]

western digital! =)

[Khalil]

WD 250 GB
~KhaliL~

[kris303]

make it yourself using a case and internal hdd.

the 2.5" ones with a laptop hdd are great as they are really small so good to carry around

[tranced]

I would personally grab a Rosewill external shell and then plop a TB you buy separately. Make sure it's sata though.

[holden246]

just put a Western Digital Caviar Green WD10EADS 1TB in my nas and now it kicks ass

[garefal]

WD external drives are fine but be careful. These are just external drives! Not so reliable in backup things! Just put some internal HDDs in your old pc and store everything there unless you have money for an expensive NAS system..

[snowflake1600]

I have a 1tb iomega ego for $123. Its a great hard drive so far

[occultus]

Western Digital makes good ones, but it is important to use the esata connection because usb is just too slow

[Qlix]

Western Digital owns. <3

[titoooo90]

thanx

[llamaofdoom]

I have a 1TB WD.

[Calibra]

I recommend western digital I've never had problems with them but I don't recommend buying one large disk, instead you should buy 2 smaller.. mine don't exceed 200GB each
the last time I told a friend ti buy 2 drives of 250 instead of one at 500 he didn't listen and later said he should have listen cause the drive crashed and he lost all the files on it.

[chaz91]

i have a seagate with 500gb.

[Roni]

i have 1 Tb Western digital this is realy great with 32 mg buffer

[hamadoooo]

I have 320GB+500GB+500GB+1000GB

and its all WD

[janus]

I have a Fantom Greendrive II (1 TB). Looks good and runs cool.

[selipar jepun]

i have 160gb + 640 gb...

[Ash321]

WD comes with Firewire as well, in addition to the USB interface. Better speeds, but costlier. Depends on how much you want to shell out. Go for the Seagate 500GB/750GB models, or even Maxtor.

[denismota02]

[Innocentman]

I hated them. They don't last long, unless you don't use it much. Internal Hard drives for the win!!!!!

[TheMard]

one of the best no doubt...

[Kynyo]

I thing internal is pretty good

[brandace740]

I am a western digital fan. All my drives are WD.
Do not have good experience with Seagate. Everytime I use it, it die on me.

[dtrik1706]

segate is a solid brand to go with. I would also reccomend western digital, although getting a good long lasting drive from them is hit or miss it seems. but the cavier line from them is spectacular when it works.
