Looking for an external hard drive?

[da5176]

I'm looking to purchase an external hard drive. Just something to back-up all my computer files maybe to transfer to a new computer some day. I found this one... what do you guys think?

That's an excellent price for that sized WD drive! I would go for it unless you decide a larger capacity model is what you are looking for. To see what one reasonably priced online vendor sells that same model for, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16822136021

The most likely reason to that low of a price is the summer clearance specials in order to move merchandise seen often when everyone is on vacation from work or school and sales drops off. But that's also the best time to shop while everyone else is soaking in the sun! When they get back from wherever they have to spend $$ more at the full retail price. If that is the drive you want grab at now.
