Should I buy this external hard drive?

[Atrocious]

No, You can get an internal HDD for the same price but about 3 times as big.

No, You should not get it, go check out BestBuy.. $130 for a Toshiba 320gb 2.5" portable hard drive or $100 for 250gb 2.5" portable hard drive.

Toshiba - 250GB External Portable Hard Drive - Black/Red $100
Toshiba - 320GB External Portable Hard Drive - Black/Gray $130

YOU ARE WRONG! he wants a 2.5" portable of course you can get a 500gb hard drive for that price if he wanted a "3.5"" hard drive.

YOU GO TO BEST BUY TO GET COMPUTER PARTS, WHAT DO YOU KNOW?

Get off my nuts, a bigger external HDD for the same price.

IF YOU ACTUALLY READ THROUGH ALL THE POST ON THIS TOPIC, HE DIDN'T WANT A BIG HARD DRIVE AS IN BEING POWERED BY AC ADAPTER AND HE DON'T WANT AN INTERNAL HARD DRIVE ALSO. HE IS LOOKING FOR A SMALL PORTABLE 2.5".

So basically he wants one that will break easier and maybe lose?

it doesn't break easier, it depends on how you take care of it, none of my external hard drive thats 2.5" actually broke yet if you take good care of it..

If you want something that small anyways. Get a flash drive. Does the same thing.

not enough memory as a external 2.5" hard drive even if you pay that much for a flash drive.

[Atrocious]

They've released 16GB Flash Drives.
I don't imagine you need would need much more room than that, unless you're backing up your HDD.

...and people wondered why I suggested the Western Digital Passport.

[LancerRevolution]

ladies stop arguing,i have a laptop so i want an external backup.
i dont want to spend more than 110$ after shipping,i dont got credit ect.only willing for money orders maybe,mainly goin for bestbuy or circuitcity or compusa,city businesses,not online.

[Cloud Strife]

Yeah, just try to find something you can plug in via USB and take back out as quickly as it went in, nothing with power cords (those are usually the huge ones...)

[runtohell121]

well i'll say the best deal is about $130 for 320gb... you can get $13 off by stopping at post office and try to find a 10% coupon.. lol so the total of that toshiba would be $130-10%=$117 + tax.
