Ive got a maxtor external and it serves me well 🙂

Did you do maths at school Turks?

my quoted price £650ish
Maxtor price £500

half the price??

Cheers though, I didn’t realise the 400GB externals were that cheap…might buy a couple of them and use windows RAID for 800GB…that should keep me going for a couple of weeks. Anyone want to buy a pair of 300GB drives?

[XDCiNSANE]

how much ?

[Deicist]

Seagate do a 400GB firewire / USB2 for £152.

I was refering to this… but since I dont know what Scsi is… perhaps I got it all wrong…

I was actually pricing up Scsi external storage arrays and found a place that does them for about £1 per GB… unfortunately I need about a Terabyte so that’d be a grand and I don’t have that kind of budget.

My way of thinking was that 1000 / 2 = 500 … but now Im not so sure…

Aye…but I already have a couple of nice full systems…and a media centre, and a web server so what else am I gonna spend it on? 😀

TUT TUT naughty WET!

[XDC wild egg tamer]

hehe, not my scene but i know some of the chaps like to indulge from time to time. 😀

[Deicist]

Well, maybe in my youth…. too old for that sort of thing now, and my kidneys are completely fooked due to too much indulgence so I now get chronic pain if I dabble in class As. Which is nice.
