I need one badly. Trying to wait until the prices come down, they're through the roof right now due to all the flooding in Taiwan this past summer and fall.
I want to do a fresh install of Windows, but don't want to lose all the data I have on the one drive I have.
May just go with an external drive after the prices come down some, unless anyone here has a spare they want to sell. If so, hit me up.

I'd like at least 1T, maybe bigger if I can afford it. May pop into Best Buy tomorrow on my day off, or maybe I'll just order one from Tiger Direct.
But, I definitely need more storage space.
Thanks for the link.

Also check out Newegg.com. My Dad buys everything electronic from there.

I've bought from Newegg before and never had an issue. I tend to go mostly with Tiger Direct because they take Bill Me Later, and that's an awesome way to pay.
Good if you don't have the cash right now, but can pay it off quickly. No interest if you pay it off within 60 days of the purchase and I can usually manage that.

Found a 1TB internal drive on Tiger Direct for $89.99, might just go for that one. Shipping is fast and they stand behind what they sell.
Plus, I don't have to go to the store and see 10 other things I think I need.

They definitely are in my case. I love Best Buy and hate it at the same time. Always an expensive visit.

I always get sucked into something for my PC or game system. Gotta stay away until I pay off the Bill Me Later Christmas tab I ran up this year.

I hear ya dude. I gotta stay away from buying new stuff until I recover from all the money I spent at the strip club. Me, booze and naked women = surefire loss of money.

I had to stop strip clubs straight up. My wife isn't a fan, and she wasn't digging the money I was spending either. Plus, in MD we have clubs that will let you bring your own beer. Sounds cool, but they check it and give you a number that you show whenever you want one of the beers you already paid for.
Then they want a tip for giving you one of the beers you already paid for. Freaking hate those places. Except for the boobs.

It was my buddy's birthday, so I went along with it, not to mention being single I have nobody telling me I can't.
The Patron is what did me in. On the other hand, one of the women there gave me her number. She's 43, but hey, she's still got it!

Nothing wrong with that at all. Heck, you might learn a thing or two;)

That's what I'm hoping for. She obviously knows what she's doing.
