New Hard Drive

tee_roaul

Hi Guys, im new here, i do a lot of work between locations, so i need a method of keeping all my important files with me where i am.

Someone said to get an external hard drive,

I was wondering does any one have advice on which type.

I need at least 20 GB to cover my work files.

Thanks for help

Brian?

Any good reason why you need an external hard drive? An internal one would be cheaper and faster.

Answer your question briankeating?

External Hard Drive is probably the easist solution for a large amount of data (> 1GB). You can pick them up pretty cheap these days on komplett and other webstores.

You can find better offers then Maplin or Peats online, I know the Maxtor One Touch drives are suppose to be good and will back up all your stuff by clicking one button.

I think PC world are still selling the freecom external drives for 90 Euro up in Blanchardstown although I'm not sure they've still got them in stock.

They're 80 GB in capacity by the way.
