Help:Buying external hard darive
« on: October 24, 2013, 01:55:57 am »
mga tol 2 ang pinagpipilian ko

1.WESTERN DIGITAL MY PASSPORT 500GB   â‚±2,650.00
2.WESTERN DIGITAL ELEMENTS 1TB             â‚±2,500.00

question:

bakit mas mura yung 1 tb kesa dun sa 500 gb lang?
dahil ba may adapter ung 1tb at wala yung 500gb lang?
dahil ba trial lang ang backup software ng 1tb?
paano pag naglapse na yung trial ng 1tb ibig ba sabihin e indi na pwedeng magback up o manual copy paste na lang ang pwede?
dahil ba may security ang 500gb at yung 1tb ay wala?

sa bahay ko lang naman gagamitin.

thanks in advance!

my guess is yung 500GB is 2.5 meaning no need for external adapter, it draws its power from USB port, while yung isa need pa ng external adapter to get power

mas advisable yung portable (2.5") kung dinadala mo palagi, tulad ko. dinadala ko minsan sa opis. y'know kalakaran ng videos.  ::lmao

yung isa kasi, pang desktop talaga yun. as in, katabi ng rig mo.  laffman::
so, yun ang mas advisable sa inyo.

I think, western digital, may security kahit ano pa ang model at capacity ng hard drive nila.

tama po sir.. mas advisable ung portable 2.5 na 1TB with usb 3.0, i do have a seagate free agent 1tb usb 3.0 but ung downside lang neto is ung saksakan ng usb sa hard drive lumuluwag so masyadong sensitive, kapag naposisyon mo na sya sa tamang angulo dun na madedetect ng pc hehe kaya kapag kumukopya ng mga epektos na bidyo hehehe eh sa kasarapan ng kopya matabig mo lang kopya ulit sa umpisa pero ok lang sakin kasi its on 3.0 mabilis na transfer rate ng onti..
if may budget naman go na sa 1.5 or 2tb.. naglabas na sila sa market so parang 1k lang difference from 1tb..

I prefer the 2.5" portable if I were u.. para easy to carry hindi ka na mapproblema sa power adapter
Seagate
WD

If I were you, go with Seagate and Western Digital, kasi sila nalang ung 2 company na mismong gumagawa ng hard drive, unlike toshiba i think ang laman nun is samsung... ::laffman

well, na-mention mo na maluwag ang plug, mukhang agree din ako.  laffman::
yung sa corrupted data, ang tinamaan sa akin yung internal hdd ko. 1 year pa lang yun.

pero itong external, intact pa naman. wag sana mausog. eheheh.

mas recommended yung walang password protected na hd
kasi may downfall sila
kahit na walang password
automatic nag-lolock siya

ibig sabihin, USB3.0 na yan. may backward compatibility kaya supported pareho.
ngayon ko lang din naisip, wala atang kinalaman yung USB version sa price.  ::lmao
