i got a lot of music and other random crap - probably about 200gigs, but i could trim it down to around 100. basically im paranoid that someday my 500gig hd is gonna crash and im going to lose all my hard work.

i went to best buy the other day to check some out. i seen a bunch that were like 90 and 100 bux, but they are all the new high speed USB, self powering types, which will not work on my computer. i need the independent powering type (with a seperate cable for power).


so if you have a CHEAP and GOOD and preferably newish hard-drive thats 100gigs or over, tell me what you want for it.

 

how much you planning to spend Rockman.? 100GB

 

you have 100 gig hd you want to sell? how does 40 or 50 bux sound? depends on if you came to me or i came to you.

what exit # r u off I95? im at exit 51.
im going to ft lauderdale/hollywood this weekend to check out some g35 rims. plus im at the hardrock like twice a week.

 

well i would have to ask the owner...the g/f.....will let you know.

 

i forgot to mention, in case you didnt figure it out, i want an EXTERNAL hard drive - for backup purposes only.

 

Here is something you might be interested in

I might have an extra 120Gb laying around I'll check for you if that's all you want. Will also keep an eye out over at [H]ardForums there are always deals there from people trying to part out comp stuff

 

thats a damn good deal. 500 gigs for 100 bux. but thats also the highspeed usb selfpowering type. i need the old school, plug into the wall type (is that usb 1.0?)

 

I found an 80GB WD with HD enclosure that I bought seperately for $35, but not sure if that's enough for you thats IDE also USB 2.0 plugs into the wall.

Turns out I got rid of my 120gb Seagate already!

 

80 will do fine. i will chop what i dont need

how much do you want for it?
is it new or used?

how does 20 shipped sound?

what do you mean by hd enclosure or pm enclosure

 

I have a 160GB IDE HDD, is internal though but you can use an enclosure with AC adapter like this one:

And is backwards compatible with USB 1.1 and it has it's own AC adapter, so you don't have to worry about self-power through the USB 2.0.

LMK if you are interested
