Hey all,
The Costco near me has quite the deal either a Western Digital 500GB My Passport Elite, or the same setup from Seagate. Both are USB compatible, and both are quite small. Seeing as the new camera I have saves each picture as a 25-27Mb file, I have run out of room, and do not want to lug my external HDDs around with, given that they need external power, are big, etc. My question is are these drives worth the $120 that they want for them? Has anyone used them before..i.e.: do they work well for a long time, reliability, etc? I have the capacity here at the house, but when I am on the road, I would need more...alternatively, I need to shoot less
Needing more storage (and not just for my computer!!)
