I'm hearing that new flash technology is in the works that will drive storage capacity way up, and prices way down in about a year, if you can wait that long.

No offense, but this is terrible advice when it comes to computers. Never wait for new tech because there's always something new.


HC, what exactly are you looking to store and how valuable is the data (in other words, do you care about data redundancy)?

Initially I just wanted to transfer all my movies from DVD to an external HD because my new laptop doesn't have a disc drive. But another issue is that as my last laptop was quickly dying and my options were limited, I dumped a lot of stuff (mostly photos) on to a bunch of flashdrives. So ideally I'd just like everything in one place.
