I try to keep all my AVI & MP3 files well organised, have about 200gig worth of movies on there and about 30gig of Music files. Works well for me.

400? :eek: i never knew they could get that big. i was planning on getting a 120gig one. might try to get a bigger one know. how much did yours cost?
 
I recently bought a 300gb one for about 50 quid. Excellent investment.
 
I have 2 x 500g SATA2 disks for all my 'stuff' and a 10k RPM raptor for o/s.

If you're buying an external and your pc can do it, make sure you get USB2.0 otherwise you're going to get some shit performance when copying stuff.
 
Probably worth mentioning i dont download if avoidable usual divx's, i always go for the HD rips, miles better quality for viewing. I've had files downloaded upto 20gb for just one 'clip'.
 
I recently bought a 320 gigabyte external hard drive from Currys for £70. I don't know if the offer will still be available though.
 
i only have 1.61gb left :(

too many movies

how do you guys organise your clips and things?

Burn your movies on cds... If im not wrong every movie size at least 700 MB that is a Normal cd.
That way you keep the movie and erase it from your hard drive...
U can do the same with your music and videos
 
Burn your movies in DVDs

If you have DVD Writter u can do that, Blunder if you dont have that then use the normal Cd writter and start burning, your pc full of files gets so slow even to start windows and do normal stuff
 
picked up a 350gb Seagate drive (usb) for €99

its even got a funky strip light which glows orange in the dark
 
Just recently got a portable 250GB from WD (2.5") love it, you can carry it anywhere.
