What type of external hard drive should I buy?
I am looking to buy an external hard drive. I have a few questions. What should I get? It seems that every review I read on amazon people complain about connectivity problems and also the system dying. Some people say some are loader than there computers. I would like something above 500 GB. I have a computer that is windows xp and I ordered a computer with windows 7. I also need to make sure the drive will function with both so i can transfer itunes to the new computer.

It seems like lots of people have troubles with ALL of them. That being said, I've had my passport for 3 years now and still use it often. It is portable. The bottom line here is if you plan on moving it around a lot, treat it with care no matter what you get. I firmly believe people take them for granted and don't realize how delicate they are. One drop and you're done usually.

BETTER YET, BUY A TERRABYTE FROM BESTBUY.COM
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Western+Digital+-+WD+E...
i have one and it is great.
i have windows 7 as well.
Source(s): just as a ps: people that complain, most of the time dont read the instructions that come with it. its simple, however, if u dont read them, its really confusing. best buy is also much better then amazon.
