External HD. Expert opinions wanted
 

Here's what's going on.

Lack of memory has been a constant problem for me for the past month or so, it's driving me nuts.

Time to get the big guns out.

I'm hunting for a 250GB external hard drive. The price difference between the different models isn't large enough for me to consider that an issue. It's whether or not the thing will crap on me that I worry about.

So what are the good brands out there? Which one to stay away from? Your input is appreciated :thumbsup

Stick with western digital, i've ran 100 computer networks in the past, the seagates, ibm's, toshibas etc. all burnt out well beforehand.

My two WD 250's have been great.

another vote for WD hard drives

I agree, seagate is out here. I'm using 5 maxtor 250's here and never had a problem.

I hate maxtors and have replaced them alot more then Seagate or WD drives.
