External Drives
 

I'm thinking on getting this

http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/p...&page=external

Anyone have any experience with it?

waste of money...

$127.50 Seagate Barracuda 7200RPM 300GB

$37.99 Nexstar 3 External Enclosure
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817145131
(also comes in red and blue)

I agree... I did the same as above... bought a external enclosure and put a hd in it

yeah that is the best choice (nexstar) I also did it that way. But i also got one olidata wich is very good and strong. Not expenxive at all 200 gb

I have a few of those hd enclosures.. they rock :thumbsup

do one yself

or if you cant/wont dont buy at dell, just get a decent ext maxtor

maxtor drives suck

Here's a Fantom 200gb for $79 on sale at PC/Mac mall

I'm on my third of those now and been happy with every one of them.
Never had to install anything, just bought it, pluged the cables and started using it.. (Damn i love it when things are as easy as that *lol*) so might not be the cheapest solution, but it deffinetly is easy and problems free :)
