[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1631146, member: 204485"] I would say pretty much the same as everybody else. I would get a 1 Tb USB HD and get shift of some of those movies. It will only cost your around $120.00. Surely you don't need them all, all the time. Even if you are a bit of an affectionardo and watch the same movies frequently they will play off your USB HD quite well. As for replacing your laptop just for more storage well I would say that you would be wasting an otherwise good, reliable laptop. Bear in mind to work efficiently you need 20% of your HD storage empty or you will start to encounter spinning wheels. $120.00 is cheap compared to the other alternatives and it affords you the opportunity to also create a full Bootable Backup which would be very handy should a disaster occur and you lose or damage your laptop. I use Carbon Copy Cloner myself but I have heard good things about ChronoSync. Please ask if you need further advice. Cheers, Rod [/QUOTE]
