Title: External Hard Drive Recommendations
Post by: rip|CoyotezEye on October 28, 2010, 11:26:27 AM
Figured with my ever growing Movie & TV show collection I should think about picking up a External HD. One of my (2) Internal HDs is almost maxed at 320 Gigs worth. And no thats not Porn LOL.

Looking for something with 1TB I guess. Something easy to use / transfer data to. And cheaper the better. Not sure what a 1TB Ext. Drive goes for. But $75 or less would be great. Even better if you can find it on Amazon.

Denial ... denial... denial...

OK.. just kidding...  unless the Ripper chaps pictures count as porn...   :-)

I do see very good deals on http://slickdeals.net/ from time to time...   Can you wait for a deal, or is your HDD about to explode?

Example...
Seagate 1TB External Desktop HDD 59.99 Frys Online & In Store Pick-up

Amazon has to be putting out some deals as the holidays approach...

Amazon does do BF ... in fact they are currently doing min-BF's each week until the real one (via Gold Box) ... though I don't see any HDD's listed so far.

I'd stay the hell away from Seagate personally, WD or Samsung for me.
Also 'Cavalry' brand uses WD drives.
