External Hard Drive

Naeem786_2

Hello, everyone!
My first post so forgive me if this not in the place that it should be.!!

Basically looking for a external hard drive at the moment, recently had seen them for 500gb around the £70 mark but havent seen any recently.
Can anyone help preferably for that price or below not very loud when operating and a power switch on the module.
Hope im not asking for too much.

Hi Naeem786,

Play.com are quite good. Try searching for "EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE" you will get quite a few results.

I did a few searches using Kelkoo and Price Runner but found Play.com to be the cheapest.

Hope that helps!

Nathan, it is against the forum rules to have a link in your signature

(just to let you know!)

Thanks very much for telling me. I missed it in the rules.

I just bought one from ebuyer, 160gb laCie for 50£. a 2.5"
The advantage of the small ones is that they don't require external power supply.

Or you could try this:

I bought this a couple of months ago for £85.99...it's now £79.99...bargain.

Go for a Seagate or Western Digital drive if you can - far more reliable than other brands on the market.
