External HDD

[killergamer]

Do you have a external hard drive? If you do.
What type do you have?
How big?
And what do you use it for?

Some maxtor crap that originally had a 40 GB HDD in it. I painted it, changed the LED's and put a 250 GB HDD in it. I use it for storage of everything. Music, software, movies, resume, taxes. Basically, if my system drive ever craps out, I MIGHT lose some E-mail (it's stored on the server anyway). Everything else is on the external.

No way, I have the same exact specs! Did you get the black one too?

I've also used a WD Passport, those things are really nice, totally worth the money to pick one up.

I have a freecom 400Gb USB2.0
I really dont know what I would do without it nor how I managed to survive before I did.
Used mainly as a backup but alos to move files around between computers both mine and mates .....
Also use it to keep all my music on.

I have a 250GB Maxtor HDD sitting inside a Black USB Cooler Master X-Craft Enclosure.

I basically use this to back up all of my music, movies, pics, and software and other stuff.

Works great when one of my mates have a LAN, we plug it into the hub via USB and you just dump all of your media files on it and take what you want.

I have 2x 500GB Western Digital MyBook Pros--backing up video edits could not be easier and more reliable!

i HAD an NetDisk which over heated and took the 500GB drive with it.

Now it sits on my desk in bits used as an external caddy with a 120GB drive in it for my CD-Images and backup files,

I also use a 30GB 2.5" external HDD for "MY Documents" so i can move them around with me.

Yeah, if you count the 400Gb Hard-drive in my Xbox.

Since I pretty much use it for everything. Emulating consoles, music, pictures, videos, movies.

I have some old 100GB one my uncle gave me because he didn't need it anymore... I used it for a backup once but haven't touched it since.
