external hard disk/drive

[sweet_bhie]

I'm planning on buying one kasi di talaga kaya kung flash disk lang at kawawa naman si ipod kun dun ko sasave mga files.

What are the do's and don'ts on buying it? Pa post na rin anong magandang brand at how much pati capacity na rin. Thanks!

[hulawho]

I have a shock-proof 160gb external hard drive.

[sweet_bhie]

^ what brand? how much? at saan mo nabili? 160Gig ba pinaka maximum capacity?

[hulawho]

Freecom yun brand, made in Germany. Actually may mga external hard drive na hangang 400GB. But ko naman gaano kelangan yun ganun kalaki.

Got it in hongkong, 1,100 HK$ (P6,600)

^Meron kayang ganyang brand dito sa pinas? Mahal din pala external hard drive.

hubby got his 120GB seagate for P5,400. you might opt to get that one. actually, dito ko sya sa GT nabili.

about the vaio cover, clone cases lang yun. imitation.

parang mas mahal yung iomega 250G lang samatalang kay sis alinkshel 500G seagate na. parang di ko pa narinig yang iomega pero check ko na rin.

cher.liman

alinkshel
was the 120G may cover na or ready na siya pang usb? so you mean wala talagang existing vaio na EHD? wala kasi ako nakikita sa website ng sony eh. cute pa naman dami color at maliit siya. hehe check ko yung seagate.

bad_boy
sorry, i dindn't know that was an immitation. nakita ko lang sa website kaya ko natanong.

baka may mas mura pa kayong masusuggest na mataas capacity pero trusted brand. thanks!

i have a memorex portable hdd, 160GB 880HKD
we have a new LaCie [textspeak!] Quadra Hard Drive 1T - 4000hkd.

heres the trick, if you like it to be with your laptop all the time, buy the portable HDD its light weight, its small and thin, you dont need a power adaptor for that, although you might need the power and usb/firewire cable and power cable usb-laptop for that.

if it's gonna stay with your desktop, buy the 3.5" HDDs, no brand and buy a case, ask them to do assemble for you, test it and you have a good product in a good price.

thanks for the info! i din't know that an extrnal hdd had power adaptor.
