Question by h20_metal: differences between hard drives…?
im a filmmaker, and if youve ever worked with digital film, you know that it takes up a lot of space. were talkin 1 gb per minute. im shooting a film right now and ive already filled up 2 miniDV tapes. My harddrive is almost full, so im looking to add more hardrive. im thinkin 250 gb should do it, but as i was looking online, i noticed that an 80gb hardrive costs the same as a 250gb. they are different brands, so can anyone tell me what the difference it?

3 things:
1. Brand Name- how big and/or famous the brand is
2. Ribbon cable in back- SATA (smaller) or IDE (older+huge)
3. External or internal drive
