Stay away from seagate and make sure the disk can run at 10,000 rpm and you should be fine i guess.

I prefer Western Digital, and I use one and it works fine.

I would probably recommend something like this. Good amount of room for the price: http://www.amazon.com/Western-Digital-Pa...199&sr=1-1

@ DAMINK™ Online tnx for the info

From what I can see, the only power supply necessary is USB. My old one has to be plugged into a power outlet

Get an external chassis and then insert a drive of your own choosing

$15 case http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6817106112

$85 1TB WD Drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6822136317

So for $100 you're good to go.

Yep its what i do Omni. I have had my cradle for years now. Usb connection with a power supply.



Ugly unit and been hacked by me to death lol. So i put a beer there to brighten the pic a bit

Mine is worse...I don't even know where the "shell" is but I still use the connector part with the power and USB. It's pretty much only the backend of it which used to slide into the base. I just leave it sitting out.
