Hey guys, it seems that Maxtor is not recommended here. I'm
thinking of getting one of 120GB.
So, what brand would be good? I was thinking of Western Digital
due to its affordability, but performance wise, how is it?
Also, I really am new to this external HDD issue. I would like
to ask, if i do have one, I would be able to install my computer
games there right? Is there like any requirements for me to be able
to install and play games or something like that? My current 80GB
internal hard drive is almost full...
Your help is really appreciated, thanks...
WD is quite value for money. Reviews are quite alright.
If $ is not a prob. segate would be better.
Yes. You can install games/ put files/ ect. Not anyknown
requirements, except I would recc having a folder for each game you
install. If not their dll files will be all over the place.
It would function like a thumbdrive (plug and
play) just that it has a larger capacity.
If you will not bring your external hdd around, i would recc
getting the 3.5 inch external hdd. The difference between a 3.5 and
a 2.5 inch hdd is that the 2.5 is smaller than the 3.5 and it
requires only a usb port. The 3.5 requires a power source. However
the 3.5 inch hdd is cheaper. A 80gb 2.5'' hdd would be more
expensive than a 80gb 3.5'' hdd at same storage capacity.
