Re: Recommendations for Ext Hard Drive?
I love this place! Such a great response in such a short time.
Thanks everyone.
I think I should have mentioned I am on a WinXP box that does not have USB 2.0 currently so that is why I chose the Firewire connection.
Looks like votes are:
2 Lacie
1 WD
1 Seagate
I thought I read somewhere the Lacie drives are geared towards Macs. Anyone with Lacie & Windows combination?
I currently enjoy 2 Seagate internal drives so I was tempted to go that route for an external drive.
The use for these will be for long time storage (or so I hope). I envision filling one up, burning to disc (CD or DVD) playable copies then shelving the drive until I need the archive again. This method versus a daily use drive I hope will make these last a long long time. Any thoughts on this idea/approach?
