recommend me a new harddrive

[Dark88]

Hi guys,

Running out of space on my current HD (40Gig of a 500gig drive left), the new drive will mainly be used for transferring my photography to it, and possibly trying out windows 7?

I've opened up my case and had a look and it seems by current 1 is SATA, I'm looking for another 500gig drive unless there's something bigger for a bargain price any recommendations? also will I need to buy any extra connectors etc? Looks like I've got a few free cables sticking out of my PSU (not much help I know)

cheers,
DM

Price range?
Can get a 1.5tb Samsung F2 for under £80, that's a bargain price.. or a 1TB for <£60.
You'll need a SATA power cable.. flat and black, about an inch long, with 15 flat pins (I think) that you probably won't be able to see. Nothing else looks like them, most modern power supplies have them. You'll also need a SATA data connector, most modern motherboards come with them..
