  3. On a serious note, I doubt I go with anything over a TB. The most games I play at one time is between 3 to 5 and that's good for about the space left on my OEM Hdd.

    Then if I'm patient enough to finish a game, I usually just uninstall it to make space.

    If need be I'll go big but I'm not seeing it now.

    What sizes external HDD you getting?

    I've got a couple of prospective HD's lined up.

    One is 5400 rpm the other is 7200 rpm. Does the larger, amount mean a better product? If so why?

    Also is there any advantage to having a single 4TB HD vs 2 seperate 2TB HD's?

  5. Are there any real advantages? Uh I guess if you have two separate drives you could back up your data, but other than that I don't see any other advantages. Also the faster the rpm speed on the hard drive the better it will perform.

    Higher rotational speed typically translates into a faster seek time (drive can move to the data faster).

    It also typically means higher power draw and more heat.

    I'm going to try and go with a 2-3TB external but knowing me I'll just get 4TB. Gotta plan for growth because of games with gold.

    Whagi, I'd be more than happy to take a few of those external HDDs off of your hands if you want to save the shelf space. ;)

    I'm either going to grab 4TB or 3TB. The price difference is not too big between those 2 but man, £90+ for more space. Its a lot :/ I would rather pay for extended Cloud storage if they allowed that.
