bravo 35 Report post Posted September 21, 2008 That's still a good price at DSE, and a decent brand too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(Piece's Of sh*t???) All unknown brand names and generics lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grant 4 Report post Posted September 21, 2008 I have two of the Seagate 500GB external HDD's (actually bought from Dick Smith). They have been good and reliable to date. Glenn - to show the change in prices in the last 6 or so months, I paid $379 each for them 6 months ago. Cheers Grant Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cale 36 Report post Posted September 22, 2008 True Grant! I bought a SeagateFreeagent 500GB 5 months ago for ~$320. Very good HDD though. I might have to get a USB powered one as it is really annoying tranporting the hulking 500GB one that plugs into the wall. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
