    Drive advice

    Morning people
    I am looking to buy a new drive to store my music photos and movie files. Right now I have about 400gb of data.
    What do you suggest?
    Costco has a 500GB "SimpleDrive" External Hard Drive USB 2.0 for $219.99 I thinking about buying that partly because of there no questions asked unlimited return policy.

    Not familiar with that brand but the price makes it sound interesting...

    The Simpledrive is made by Simpletech. Not too sure who makes the drive itself, though. I reckon it's a seagate or something, so you should be ok.

    I would also highly recommend backing up the data onto DVDs if it's important.

    With that much data backing it up is important.

    Intel I5 750 @ 2.67 Ghz, 4gb GSkill DDR3 1600, GB P55M-UD2, XFX Radeon 5850. , Seagate Constellation ES 1 TB, Seasonic Gold 620w, Win Vista Ultimate, Toshiba 32" HDTV

    E6750 Core 2 Duo, 2GB Corsair XMS2 DDR2 800, GB P35C-DS3R MB, ATI Radeon X1950XT, Seagate 7200.9 320GB, Win XP Pro SP2, Enermax Liberty 500w
