O/T External USB Drives

Try Amazon.co.uk, ebuyer.com or dabs.com, unless you need it urgently Baz!

Argos got em.

Will probably be more expensive than the sites I've listed, but possibly more convenient!

You can get a 1Tb or 2 Tb drive for not much more than a 500Gb.
To futureproof for faster Xfer speeds get a USB3 drive. You have probably only got USB2 on your PC now, but your next PC will have USB3.
There is a bit of a world shortage of hard drives due to the problems in Japan, and flooding in Thaiiland.

out of stock spent hours looking

Maplin is where I get mine from Baz, always got a deal on. The last one I bought was a 2TB and I think it was around the £100 mark but that was 2 yrs ago.

you can do what I did and buy a 1TB unit with a seperate power source on Amazon for less than £50!

Got to be careful with the prices Baz as the floods in Thailand and problems in Japan mean prices have shot up for hardware like HDD's.

i just want a USB one with no other leads they have shot up in price lately

Most units above 500gb may come with an adaptor for external power because of the size of the disc and internal fan (if installed) sometimes it is not compatible to drain the power it needs through a USB Port....

i just want to put films on it HELP FFS

Look for a PORTABLE hard drive then, don't get an EXTERNAL one - Although some portable hard drives are listed as external hard drives, make sure the description has PORTABLE somewhere (and doesn't contain a power source of course!)
