    I want to get another hard drive but I was just wondering what is every ones preference in HD's?

    I've got two internal HDs (room for five) one WD Mybook external essential edition, ie usb, thing is I'm running out of power sockets fast !:D

    So would you go internal, external usb, or external firewire? (can't go external sata2)

    Just curious :)

    Go internal, takes up less room

    Yea I bought an external one and thought a internal one would have been handier but you cant move it between computers so seeming as you already have some externals id go internal as anti says.

    Internal would be cheaper too not by much but Eddie Hobbs would still be proud.

    HD's aren't that light the weight can add up if you've got a good few of them, can be a bit of a pain if you go to lans or move your PC a lot. If you don't mind that then internal for sure.
