    Great little portable hard drive. Buydig.com has the lowest price on the web at this point for this portable. I am so tempted. (You can't have enough of these drives, especially if you like carrying around movies and entertainment.)

    1. Amazn as it fro the same price.
    2. WD has a 400GB portable drive for roughly $60 shipped = $75/500GB but with only a 1 year warranty. You have to decide if the extra 2 year warranty for the toshiba is worth it...

    I have several of the Toshibas...in 320GB, 400GB and 500GB versions...love them.

    I also have 3 of the WD 400GB drives mentioned above. The 1 year warranty FROM MANUFACTURE DATE is, in fact, an issue to me, but the price was good.
