Is anyone here selling an external hard drive? I'm about to pick up a new one on eBay, but I thought it would be a good idea to check here first. Maybe I could get it a little cheaper here, in addition to helping one of you guys out. 500GB minimum. Also, if you know where I can get a better deal than what I'm getting, holla at ya boi.

This is what I'm getting, if not: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=330287383131

I have that one. Don't delete the 'My Book' folder when you get it.

it sat in the same place for a whole year without moving. it didnt get any exercise? the guys who tryed to repaire it said "must of been dropped" ......no you just cant fix them. its dead. nothing could be recoverd.


but hey its a good deal so your call for the risk of adding all balls to the list of groups who was working on a dvd till a random harddrive crash.

No worries on the ABV footage. This is more for my school projects. We edit on Macs, so I can't use my other 500GB HD, which has all the ABV footage on it.
