you really can't go wrong

pornguy · 05-06-2005, 03:56 PM

I need to get one. I have been talking about it, but just have not done it.

wedouglas · 05-06-2005, 03:59 PM

ive still about 100 gigs left outta my 150

JSA Matt · 05-06-2005, 04:00 PM

I got a 300gb Seagate with the same Vantec enclosure for $215

booker · 05-06-2005, 04:01 PM

Nice.. what do you have internal already?

One SATA drive and two IDEs, I'm pushing nearly 3/4 terabytes.. thinking a rackmount raid array, or optical backup, might be in order. What do other people use for high volume storage at home?

Sosa · 05-06-2005, 04:07 PM

very nice, I need one for backups

Sweet. and great price.

DateDoc · 05-06-2005, 05:06 PM

Yup, a backup HD is a must have. 300GB Seagate here.

Nice external drive! I just got one too, mine has a 1 gig cache, 6400gigs (aka 6.25TB), but it was a little more than $200.00. Rack not included

For $200, you can't go wrong.

that's what i'm talking about! must be nice!
All these external drives all over the place get to be a PITA!

Vitasoy · 05-06-2005, 07:18 PM

Very nice. HD prices have been droping like crazy.

Choker · 05-06-2005, 09:37 PM

every Maxtor and most seagates I have had to return because the drives just fucked up. I bought 2 of those 300 gig seagates and both were bad. I use the Western Digital 160 gig drives and the iomega rocket pods

KRL · 05-06-2005, 09:38 PM

So far good luck with Seagate and Western Digital external drives. The seagate is by far the quietest drive.

funny, I have the exact opposite problem.

booker · 05-06-2005, 09:47 PM

It's funny how people have completely different experiences with hard drive manufacturers. I've pretty much always sworn by Western Digital, never had a problem.. yet I know a guy who ordered 8 for a rack, and 6 of them were bad.

Everyone has their horror stories.. the lesson is redundancy, never rely on a single system or storage method for the most important of files. It's common sense to backup on a regular basis and keep things in order, but people get lazy.

Lykos · 05-06-2005, 09:54 PM

I must go on monday to buy more 200-300 gigs HDD

NaughtyRob · 05-06-2005, 10:04 PM

We have them laying around like candy.

bdld · 05-06-2005, 10:14 PM

i've got a 60 gig one and i cant even fill that one up.

wow, it looks pretty cool.
1/4 TB is GREAT for that price. Just tell me is it SATA or standard ATA ?

Homer · 05-07-2005, 07:44 AM

I only have 80gb

Me too, every Western Digital HD that I've had has lasted a little over a year & the Seagate was the same. Maxtor has been by far the most reliable for me - some are going on 3-4 years and still working like a charm.
