Hi There Folks,
I have a dilemma. I'm quickly running out of storage space and need to back up some crucial data.
Ideally I would like to purchase a 3TB hard drive however I've read that I may face issues with being to use the full amount of storage.
1. Should I go for a 3TB External HD or an Internal 3TB HD in an enclosure?
2. Should I go for 2 TB Storage instead to avoid facing potential issues in scenario 1?
3. Can you guys recommend me a decent and reliable Ext/Internal HD?
I'm using a Abit IP35 Pro mainboard (supports eSATA) at the moment with Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
