1 T External Hard Drive

Quote from taclander:

I think you must be married to my sister in law. LOL She barely lets her kids do any games on the computer let alone allow a game system in the house. I have to admit I envy her resolve at times, like when my kids are at war over playing on the X-Box 360, or attempting to blow off getting homework done. My kids get the shakes and start sweating when we go to visit and they can't play on their system. LOL

Wait a minute this is not all:

1. Only oranic baby food for the boys till the age of 2. I am still paying off the second motgage I needed to pay for those groceries.

2. Still buys organic cereal for them. I on the other hand can eat the regular stuff (hey I gave her 2 kids, so wtf am I still doing around?)

3. No smoking in the house which also became no smoking in the garage which became no smoking around the kids while outside which became no smoking period.

4. Havin mother in law helping with kids, which became mama living with us which became mama lives with us we should support her which means if I do not throw out KOHL's or Macy's shit out before wife gets home o mama takes them to "her" room, I know what we are doing this weekend. bad part is there is always a fucking sale yet they never buy what IS on fucking sale. Well, at least I know why I am still around.

5. It could be worse. Could it?

Does she hold your prick when you take a leak?

A hard drive is a hard drive, was it even worth opening a thread?

We both wear pants but let's not get into the kinky stuff shall we?

Sha has on occassion, but it was not during the time of urination, but let;s not get into that.....


A hard drive is not a hard drive. I need something that is considered the most reliable one.

I am afraid of e bay when it comes to fragile stuff like HD and such. Plus, the prices there are often in line with what I can get on other sites. Plus the whole thing about bidding and fighting for the best deal. I prefer a straight price and no tricks. After my vacations in Egypt, I developed a deep distaste for any transaction were one needs to "argue" in order to get a normal price.

pricegrabber.com
mysimon.com
bizrate.com
even amazon.com

once you find what you want, these sites (and others) will help you get a good price and maybe see the retailer's rating

A hard drive IS just a hard drive. Unless you buy a solid state drive, ALL hard drives are exactly the same. They ALL fail you, it's just a matter of when. I've had an 80gb maxtor last me about 6 years now, but my next maxtor died after 6 months. I've experienced the same with WD and Seagate. Check the ads at Best Buy and when one goes on sale, buy it. Just know that it could last you 10 years or 10 weeks. Also, if you go with some brand like iomega or simpletech or some other not-so-popular external drive, there is a 99% chance there is a western digital drive inside.

So, they are all the same. No better or worse????? I guess I will get two of one kind and hope for the best.

i told you-build your own. make sure it's well ventilated..

According to manufactures, the normal recommended working temperature of a hard disk is 35-40°С. Once it rises by just 10Â°С â€“ from 40Â°С to 50°С, the safety of its work becomes more than two times less!

I am really not interested in your wife's usage of a strap-on!

comparing hard drives is like comparing light bulbs. what's a better 60w light bulb....GE or Phillips? Everyone has their own preference.

If you can't take the heat then stay out of the kitchen.

I get it now. I was under the impression that there are equal and then there are more equal ones out there.
