Okay, so I need help buying an external hard drive because my laptop is getting full. I need one that will hold 100GB to 250GB. My budget is up to $100, but I hope I can find one that is more in the $75 range. So I need you soompiers to help me because I am not really that great in the computer area.
Pictures would be helpful. smile.gif

they usually have couple on sale. you should go visit bestbuy and circuit city for exact prices. you could also get a portable external drive or just an external drive. but since it's a labtop you might want to get a portable one even tho it's more expensive. they're not too expensive but expect to spend more than 75

Check newegg.com

they usually have good prices:
250Gb External HDD for $78
500Gb External HDD for $80
120Gb Portable External HDD for$79

Of course that's without shipping, but they are all still under your budget.

a 300gb external hdd for $96 shipped. might not be the best looking thing but its not too bad for its price. i dont know if you can but if you wait a while every now and then a 500gb external hdd goes on sale for around $100 if you check
