xbrianx Posted December 25, 2006 Share Posted December 25, 2006 I finally got some money now, and I really want to an external hard drive. I want one that is at least 200GB, I found a Western Digital 250GB hard drive for $150. Here's the link http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?sk...d=1153997294349 I was wondering, is this a decent hard drive? Can some explain what these mean too: - 8MB cache buffer - 7200 rpm for fast read/write times - 8.9 ms average seek time (read) Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XanaTos112 Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 i got two externals,thinking a 250 gig exteranal and 2 inner harddrives would be enough for a long long time had to end up getting a 500 gigger. got a Western Digital,seems pretty damn good,would definitely recommend it Who watches The Watchmen?

They seem to be the choice of many people, so I'll go with them. I probably won't need a bigger one for a long time. I only want it for art files, and some programs.
