| JanSport or Western Digital? | | It's christmas season again. Right now I'm quite confused as what to ask my mom for. I can have anything I want as long as it's under US$100 and is actually available in the country I live in.I've been choosing between an external hard drive for my laptop, or a new backpack for my college things. This is a tough call for me as of the moment, as I want the hard drive space to back up my files, but I want the backpack because my four-year-old JanSport is starting to wear out. I don't seem to need either, though--this VAIO still has a lot of space and I have around twenty schoolbags to choose from.If you were in my shoes, what would you choose? | |

| Recover data from slaved Western Digital drive | | This drive did not fail; but my primary drive did. I received several Blue screen errors on Windows XP Home. They referenced the primary drive failure. I tried to reinstall windows and without realizing it, when I installed from the cd, my primary drive had failed and I overwrote the FAT table on my drive.
When I realized what had happened, I aborted the installation.
Now I have the drive replaced and want to recover the data on my 2nd drive.

| | Changing NTFS to FAT32 | | I recently purchased a 1.5TB external HDD, but while copying files I found that it couldn't hold files larger then 4 gigs because it was FAT32. I converted it to NTFS, only to find the next day that I couldn't use it on my Linux laptop. This is highly frustrating, as I bought the HDD for use on both computers. Is there any way I can change it back to FAT32 without having to format it? I can delete the files that are larger then 4 gigs, but I don't want to have to copy several hundred gigs over again. If I absolutely have to format it, I will, but I'd prefer not to.
Thanks. | |

| Which is the best External hard disk? | | I want to buy an external hard disk drive. But apparently there is an option of with and without external power. What is the best brand to buy? Seagate? or Western Digital? Does anybody have experience of buying an external hard disk drive? | |
| | Flash Drive VS External hard disk/Which one do you prefer and why? | | Well hard disk and flash memory base storage is getting cheaper there days.The largest thumb drives currently available is 8gb,16gb and 32 gb.
The largest hard disk avaliable come is terabytes!Which brand Do you prefer?
I prefer kingmax thumb drives.I prefer to keep my important files
on a thumb drives and my non important files on a hard drive.The reason for that is because flash drive is can sustain a drop to the floor.Compared to harddisk if you drop it to the floor,your important data is a gonner.
