im looking for something I can store all my High definition trailers and music that I download off of the internet, my computers are full and i would like a 246 or 512 gig external hardive, I went to circuit city and they had some really nice slim looking ones, but I dont know what brands are best, and whedre the cheapest place to get them is , whether it be the internet or at a store like circuit city ,

please advise,
 
Ok Im guessing your form the states? Also what connection you lookin for USB 1.1, 2.0, firewire?
(im guessing USB 2.0)
And whats your budget?
 
hmm

im not sure on the usb thing , I will be using it between 3 computers , one that is old and a laptop i bought last year and a desktop I bought a year and a half ago

budget $200 ,

I would like for it to look nice, if im going to get one , I found a pretty slim silver one at circuit city that held 512 gigs, but i wasnt sure of getting it cause I dont really know anything about them and how they work


for example how fast does it take to transfer a file from the computer to the hard drive


if anyone could post links to images or informationa bout one you recommend , I would greatly appreciate it

I have a photography business and I have to have reliability(if I have a failure that means I have lost someone's pix and I have to pay for them to come back and give them a deal on their order). Anyway, I have 3 of these and I have had maybe 65,000 pix on each(after christmas portrait season). I have not had a "flunker" yet and for 9 months. They only guarantee a HD for 3-5 yrs. Hope this helps ur decision
