Hello Everyone,
First Id just like to say after being a long time windows user i upgraded to my first mac other than just ipods.(lol) A macbook Pro 13'' with 250GB HD. Now I am no computer wiz which I know most of you probably are thats why I am here. The 250gb HD is probably enough for me but i do have about 50gbs of music and Im always getting more also i will be adding video and my own recordings to the Macs HD. So I was thinking of getting a low priced external HD but being CPU illiterate I come here for help. Below is a list of questions and what I need in a HD any recommendations and answers to my questions is very appreciated.
Questions-
- is it simple for me to use a program like AVCware to get all my songs of my ipod and onto an external HD?
-is it easy for me to play the songs off the external HD in itunes?
-what else can i use an external HD for?
I may think up more so bare with me lol
Requirements-
-SIMPLICITY
-dosent need to be more than 250GB but if its not alot more 500 would be excellent.
-under 100 USD would be excellent.
-Id like to buy in person so something from a best buy or a Walmart/Meijer or something like that would be best but if online is the best deal i can do that.
may add more later but thats all for now thanks alot guys!!
ps. remember to keep it simple im no cpu wiz.
