Any recommendations on an external hd?
Western Digital seems to be getting the most shelf room at the retail/electronic/computer shops, etc.
I looked at their External 320gig "My Book", the blue one, not the green, which has a dual interface (?), with 320gig hd space (which space-wise is all I need at the moment) Data transfer rates up to 480 Mbps via USB 2.0, up to 400 Mbps via FireWire, 8MB cache buffer, 7200 rpm for fast read/write times, 8.9 ms average seek time.
I also looked at a couple Maxtor and Seagate models, but wanted to get an idea of what model/brand would be the best, and primarily.... the most reliable.
