Xbox 360 120GB Hard Drive

Advantages: Lots of space for all your gaming needs.
Disadvantages: Price, Dust, Missing GB

...My personal experience with the Xbox 360 hard drive has been fairly positive. The ability to store music, films, videos and of course games saves is one that no Xbox gamer should be without. 120 GB of memory is more than enough for the average gamer. The hard drive is well designed to blend with the console perfectly. It is small and easy to store. However the price is pretty heavy compared to the cheaper 20GB versions. A problem with the memory is the fact that the hard drive does not actually have 120GB, obviously it wouldn't be exactly due to the need for the running files but several GB are actually missing. Regular cleaning is advised as dust tends to collect on the hard drive but a sharp blow into the docking port is sufficient to clear this. All in all this product is an incredibly useful addition to any Xbox 360 gamers...

Xbox 360 Hard Drive Hard To Do Without.

Advantages: Huge amounts of storage, durable, can take game saves everywhere.
Disadvantages: Price.

...The Xbox 360 120GB removable hard drive is a great item to buy for any Xbox 360 gamer. The larger hard drive has become even more useful with the coming of the ability to buy or rent movies via the Xbox Live Marketplace. Considering each movie is around 1GB in size (and even larger if downloaded in HD) conventional size Hard Drives will rapidly be eaten up. The removable hard drive is also extremely easy to use, it slides clips on the size of the Xbox 360 console, and absolutely no further setup is required. It is equally as easy to remove, you simply have to push in the button and lift it out of position. Its relatively small size then comes in handy, as you can carry it to your friends house and fit it on their console. All of your game saves and your gamercard can now be accessed on their console and provided they have access to...

A hard to damage hard drive!

Advantages: Tough, fast and inexpensive!
Disadvantages: None to date.

...External hard drives seem to be getting ever more popular, it seems no matter how big the PC or laptop`s own drive is it`s never enough. This particular external hard drive is designed to be portable so as well as having the extra space you might need you also have the option of being able to take this drive along to friends or family`s houses or even to work and instantly have access to all the files you need or even just want. The Iomega eGo Portable Hard Drive in question has a 250Gb capacity which when used along with your original hard drive or probably even on its own is more than enough for most. Some external hard drives look and are very bulky and cumbersome, this one being designed to be portable is a lot less so. It is fairly light weight but very robust and also has the distinct advantage of looking good which a lot...

External Hard-drive fit for rugged adventures

Advantages: Fast transfer speed, protection from knocks and drops
Disadvantages: Fairly high price

...The LaCie Rugged All-Terrain External 250 hard-drive is a portable storage device which will allow you to store 250gb of multimedia files such as pictures, music and video. You will obviously also be able to hold documents and other files as well (e.g. software installations). Measuring at 9 cm wide, 14.5 cm long, 2.5 cm in height and weighing just 250 grams, making the LaCie external hard-drive very light as well as portable. The hard-drive is portable in the way that it is very light, the only thing you have to take into account is that you will require a medium to large sized pocket or any form of bag in order to carry the device. You could always opt to just carrying it around in your hand, which is not very practical in everyday life. All external and internal hard-drives state a certain amount of memory capacity, but in fact...

Review of LaCie Rugged Hard Disk Hard drive 250 GB

Xbox hard drive - store what you want!

Advantages: good hard drive which looks nice and can store whatever you want!
Disadvantages: quite expensive - but you can still do alot with it!

...If you own an Xbox 360 then it is almost impossible to really utilise everything that is available to you without having this 20GB hard drive. If you own the premium console or the elite then you will be fine as these already come with their own hard drives. However if you have bought the arcade console or the core console then i would certainly advise buying a hard drive so that you can really fulfill the potential of such a great console and get the most out of xbox live. I originally bought the premium console, which later broke so I bought the arcade console, but fortunately I already had my hard drive and just moved it to my new console - I would have to say that this hard drive is indispensable and extremely important part of my console as it has so many different purposes. The actual hard drive: The hard drive is quite...

Review of Microsoft Official Xbox 360 Hard Drive (20 GB)

External Hard Drive Fun

Advantages: Size, Easy to Use, Quick, Simple
Disadvantages: Could be a little bigger in capacity

...This small external hard drive is very similar to some of the portable flash/pen drives that are going around at the moment. When I bought it a couple of years ago I was very impressed with what it could do making it easy to take files back and forth no matter where I went on a day to day basis. At the moment this external hard drive is selling for an average of £30 to £35 which isn't too bad. Power ********** Like some of the USB flash drives that going around at the moment this external hard drive can draw power directly from the USB that is been used to transfer data back and forth which means there is no need for any additional power cables etc that you would expect with some devices. Design ********** The beauty about this external hard drive is that is starts off as a square/rectangular shaped device which is able to...

Review of Archos ARCDisk Hard Drive USB Key 4 GB

No Fuss, No Click Backup Hard Drive

Advantages: Easy to use even for beginners.
Disadvantages: None that I have found.

...Having experienced one or two fatal computer crashes in the past and lost every single file on my hard drive and on the first occasion without a back-up, I have been very careful about backing up my files to DVD disks since, but it was quite a slow and laborious task waiting for those disks to burn, and then on some occasions I would get that dreaded message, "back-up failed!" appear on the screen and have to start all over again! Watching the QVC shopping channel one Sunday morning, I noticed that they were demonstrating the ClickFree external hard drive, and all you had to do was to plug it in to your USB port and wait. It would search and back-up every file on your hard drive without you having to click or do anything, and then once it had done its job, all you had to do was simply unplug it and put it away. This was something that...

Review of Clickfree 120GB USB Integrated External Hard Drive

Best external USB hard drive.

Advantages: Fast, super-stylish and near-silent.
Disadvantages: Difficult to detect activity.

...I have owned this drive for a few months and have found it to be excellent. But I disagree with a previous review in several areas. This is the most stylish external hard drive I have seen. It is also one of the cheapest per GB, currently available for just £93 at Misco.co.uk, for example. It works with Macs and PCs and is almost silent. It comes with a USB cable and a driver CD for old Windows operating systems. The external design is superb minimalism and looks like it could have been designed by Apple themselves. The case is all aluminium except the front and back. The front face is black except for the capacity indicator of ?500GB? which lights up in blue and flickers during activity. The rear has the power and USB ports and a small power switch. The 500GB box value translates to 465GB under Windows due to the differing ways...

Seagate External Hard Drive 120GB

Advantages: Great invention, reasonable price, large capacity
Disadvantages: Bulky, noisy

...I store a lot of photos, music and documents on my laptop and was finding I was needing to delete documents or put things on cds to enable me to save more data on my laptop. This was getting to be a pain, so I took a trip to PC World to see what options there were. I spoke to an advisor and on special offer was this Seagate External Hard drive, instead of the RRP of £120 I got this hard drive for £70. I thought it would be really useful and this has proved true. The hard drive also came with a 1 year guarenteed warranty. The hard drive is grey and black and looks quite bulky, especially when plugged into a laptop. It has a USB cable which connects into the USB port in your computer or laptop and a cable which is plugged into the mains. When the hard drive is on, a small green light is displayed on the top. The hard drive is...

Toshiba 1TB Desktop Hard Drive (USB)

Advantages: Value for money, massive storage, great design, decent speeds!
Disadvantages: Bright flasing blue/red/purple light on the front.

...My laptop is fairly old but has served me very well (it's a Toshiba incidentaly) , it has about 27GB of storage space which nowdays isn't enough for all my work as well as movies and music. I decided to look at some external hard drives so I could store everything that I wanted and more. This particular model appealed to me, not just because it was the cheapest, but because it had very good specs (1TB of storage to say the least) and was a Toshiba. A very good brand that I trust. So I forked out the cash and had it delivered to my door. Opening the box, I saw that it was slightly longer but overall smaller than it had apeared online. This was fine as I am not bothered about space. It comes supplied with everything you need to get it running and took me about 2 mins to read the quick start guide and get it going. I then decided to...
