okay so I have 2x1tb 3.5 drives that are near enough full, I have an 80gb 3.5 I can put to use, I also have a 500gb 3.5 that's currently in my system, now I have been wanting to replace both TB drives with a single 2TB maybe even 3 to use with windows on it also before, but always had a tower that held all 3 drives, but now I have my current system, it only supports 1 drive, so I have a 2.5/3.5 dock to access my other files, but storing the drives in tubs or whether isn't appropriate...
So for around £45 I could buy a used 2tb hard drive if not too costly? Which would be easier for my dock or could try find a cheap used 3tb and use in my system so have windows put on it or I could just save up and buy a 2 - 3tb external and store away my dock for future use...
I've had bad experiences with WDB 3.5 external of old where I've lost data(my dock does not swap) or other brands and a laptop size are more expensive, but never had any problems with my current internal drives, so am asking what you guys would think be the more reliable solution and best solution???
