New Harddrive.

[owsf2000]

While out today I came across a 80gig maxtor hard drive in the liquidation bin at staples. Since I need more space anyway (right now doing everything on the 40gig drive) I bought it somewhat on impulse. I probably should have made sure there was room inside Freya to fit the bugger, although I suspect there is. I still have the usb 2.0 drive kit as well even if there isn't. It'll essentially convert the internal drive into an external usb drive. In theory of course. If all else fails I have a backup drive for whenever the 40gigger dies, which I hope won't happen for a couple years.

I also picked up a few cheap anime dvds at wal-mart. Two volumes of Lain (vol 2-3, the only ones they had) and a volume of Vampire Princess. Each of them were only 9 bucks. A good deal for new anime dvds since most anime dvds go for 30-50 dollars around here. Yeah. That's pretty much all I have to report. It's almost sad how materialistic I seem to be these days with my hobbies and collections. Seems there's pretty much nothing else worth talking about in my life. ^_^;

My old 30 GB is a Maxtor. If you've hooked it up yet, see if you can tell how much louder or not it is compared to your current one. My newer 80 GB is a Western Digital and the old Maxtor is a loud, clickety monster in comparison. Maybe the one you got is a newer model though and won't be as loud.

Heh, I'm pretty much the same way, but more with video games than with anime. I just wish I had the means at the moment to get all those older systems like you've been collecting, though.
