| Post subject: | External Hard Drive for Laptops |
Is there any brand of External Hard Drive for laptops? I don't need a Terrabyte of space, but at least 100gb is preferred. Do you know of one that can somehow stay with me while I move around with my laptop? Or at least be small and lightweight. I've seen big block ones, but that's too big. |

Just look on Newegg for a 2.5" drive. Those use laptop drives, so they don't require extra power, only USB. You'll be able to get something larger than 100gb, even 160GB are around $45. If you didn't mind the portability factor, you could use a 3.5" external hdd and get it for cheaper with more room. Right now, the largest you'll find in 2.5" will be 500GB maximum, though I'm guessing they're only up to 320 in the decent price ranges. Here's an example search. If you get it from NewEgg, you'll also get some sort of warranty unlike something from Ebay. |

I found a 500GB one on Western digital's website. There well-known for their peripherals and other computer related things. http://store.westerndigital.com/store/wdus/en_US/DisplayProductDetailsPage/productID.108304300 I think it's better then a 80GB hard drive  cheers, dafin0

I don't have a specific recommendation, or any recommendation in fact. All I would say is, due to personal experience, stay away from Lacie HDDs. |
