What he said, I have the 500Gb in my MBP and 2 500GB externals almost full and probably going to get a 1TB external for the next one. Pictures and the movies I DL take up space.

$100 for 250 GB? holly ripoff batman.

you can get a brand new 750 GB 2.5" hard drive for less than $100 almost anywhere.


Apple isn't the most expensive brand name in the world for no reason I guess. What hosers.
