Hard Drives
my OS is win 7 prof 64 bit and I am running out of external disk space, because of the amount of files, data, MP3s, backups, etc that I keep. Hope the experts can please suggest a reliable External Disk Drive, that will have its own power supply, about 1 Terrabyte or 500 gigs of space. Attached is my belarc report so that u could see in detail what I have on the computer. Thank u.

Is the data availability important for you? I mean is it important for you that you do not loose this data?
If yes then instead of using external USB drive use a NAS storage with 2x1TB drives in RAID1 mirror.

"I am running out of space" and "i have 252GB free" seem like an oxymoron!
Its only about a 2 years ago when most PC's were shipped with 250GB!
250GB is a HUGE amount of space!
