Alright! I have this at home and this is the most useful things I ever bought. My dominate computer is a laptop so it only has 60GB hard drive but thanks to this little thing I have 80GB more! It's so useful and what I love about it is the size. It's small enough to bring it with you on the go, for example I bring this to my friends house and we can all watch movies.
I'm telling you, if you're looking for a external hard drive you MUST get this. This is officially Jon Approved

heh good find.. but i rather pay another $30 for a 160gb 2.5" at bestbuy... but its a clearance item... so i'm not gonna post it.. but still good find for people who needs a portable small 80gb hd..

[Jon]

Yeah, I don't have that much files so the extra space would just be a waste. I still have like 40GB free on mine right now.

[runtohell121]

pretty true.. no need for big hard drive if your not really using it as a giant back up or a video storage drives... some people need lots of them for storage.. so sometime.. you should just shop around and see if you can find any cheaper.... 80gb should be enough for people to back up their computers though.. lol

I bought a 500gb Western Digital external last summer... I only have about 200gbs left now, and it only seems like I'm gonna need more. I might buy a 1TB external (Or just get my Desktop with 1TB or more in it) this summer... I would say, if you have a lot of media, don't buy this. If you'd like to back up your files, or just possibly back up the music for your Zune 80, buy this. It's portable, so it's not really meant to hold a lot of stuff.

man who would have ever thought there would be 1TB drives what next a 1 Tetrabyte drive

Heh, I have nothing to back up though. My laptop is plain and simple. I'm not a computer freak
