Im thinking of buying this ;
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/128602
Anyone have one of these or like to give a comment? budget is tight really, my maximum amount was £50 so even this is breaking the balance but looks great for what i will need (some music, films storage and one or two games)

Not sure what you mean, you calculated how much data you got on your cds/dvd or you mean that you have cd/dvds on your hd that takes this much space? |
No the CDs and DVDs are used for long term storage there is only so much room on a
hard drive.

Try some free linux/freebsd NAS OSes if you have an old PC rusting somewhere:

http://www.openfiler.com/
etc.

Did you ever sort something?
I'm looking at this http://www.ebuyer.com/product/128483 as an ultra cheap solution (for sharing between laptop and PC) but obviously it's not a fully featured NAS system - though on the up-side it will obviously be very quiet, cheap, and I could always harvest the HDDrive if I need it.
(did a search, assumed this would be in the hardware zone )

Not sure whether I should get another external for HD movies (1TB WD Mybook or something) or just get a fourth internal SATA ... |
I just got a 500GB WD external, don't get the USB ones lol. Good for archiving but not running stuff off of it (maybe music but that's it)

FMO...
I should of bought this "Tyan Thunder n4250QE" instead of the MoBo I have now...
Need more HDs connections...
At the moment Ive burnt 3 PSUs and killed 2 HDs...All within 2 months...
3 ThermalTake PSU (850 Watts), 2 IBM HDs (500Gig)...
Never buy cheaper products or cheap brand names like IBM for example...
I have running 80, 120, 500, 500, 500, and a DVD R/W...
Now Im just using WesterDigital HDs...
Hopefully my computer will last for a few years, which I doubt because of really crappy cheap programming now adays...he he...

On my gaming computer i have:
2x WesternDigital 250gb
Which is really all i need for music, iso's and gamefiles.
On my movie-rig i have:
Samsung 200gb
WD 500gb
2x Samsung 120gb (IDE! they really need to go)
And i just got, a week ago, my 1tb Samsung F1, very nice drive
My problem is that i collect so much crap, like series that i've watched already etc. And of course im a big fan of HD so when a mini-series like band of brothers takes 50gb alone, well, you start craving bigger disks. Probably gonna make my current movies/HTPC-rig into a streaming HDD-server soonish and buy a proper HTPC.
Oh and yeah then i have a certain FTP in my closet of a dubious nature with about 6tb of storage, but that's not really MY storage. Sounds like a fucking vacuumcleaner 
Gaming - Intel Quad Q9450 @ 3.2GHZ | Radeon HD 4870 X2 2GB | SB X-Fi | PC6400 8GB | 300GB Velociraptor

Server - Athlon 64 X2 4200+ | Radeon HD 3450 | SB X-Fi | PC5300 2GB | 4TB+ total space

why? just wondering, I need more space but a 500gb-1tb internal is a lot more affordable than an external ... |
internals constantly run. Shortens life. external I back stuff up to then turn it off, that and I Can travel with it when needed. You also forget that PC hardware here in the states is dirt cheap.

about 10 bucks more than an internal
