Looking to get a 320gb or 500gb external hard drive.

Any deals to be had?

Google Iomega my friend. They're quick, cheapish and utterly reliable IMO... 😛

Bit bigger than you wanted but I got this one a couple of weeks ago, very happy, got some cashback via topcashback too. It's tiny, and it's not supposed to be a portable.

The gf's dad is onto the 4th power supply for his Iomega external drive, they keep crapping out on him... :-/

I have a Western Digital MyBook that has been perfectly reliable but is a noisy bugger that I keep thinking about replacing, but goodness knows what with...

I got this Western Digitals one and it seems pretty reliable so far.
