[QUOTE="Verted, post: 535526, member: 19911"] Okay thanks. I'll probably give it a try, as it does work out so much cheaper, especially considering I want an external hard drive anyway. I quite like the look of this drive: [url]http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HD-115-WD&groupid=701&catid=14&subcat=170[/url] Is this the one you had? Also I notice it only has a 2MB Cache buffer, whereas all the 2.5" SATA drives have like an 8mb cache buffer. Will I notice the difference? Also, one more question. When I put my old Macbook hard drive back into my external hard drive, will my files be THAT easy to transfer over to my new hard drive (Once i've formatted it and installed OSX)? [/QUOTE]
