Hey guys,
I don't mean to be a dillweed and make another laptop thread, but I'm not very computer knowledgeable and I'm about to go buy this stuff. Just wondering if it's a good deal or not.

Well for your external hd try to find one that firewire or esata cause you don't wanna spend 3 mins for ever gig or so using a usb one (this is assuming your comp is newer and you have firewire or esata), I know that the seagate versions where given very good reviews but those reviews also test it in portability and durability in movement etc so might not be entirely necessary.

About the stick of ram 50 bucks is a bit much for just 1 stick of ddr2 667 cause i remember i got DDR2 800 and 4 gigs for my laptop for only 80 bucks. But you don't always want to go for higher speeds without checking out your chipset on your motherboard if it can support it also your cpu fsb isn't smaller then it.

Of course ionno if shit cost more in canada
I have ass for brains so,
even when I shit I'm droping knowledge.

Laptop ram is more expensive than desktop ram. Speaking generally, of course, but Izzy's numbers are to be expected.
Compilers are like boyfriends, you miss a period and they go crazy on you.

Shit does indeed cost a lot more in Canada
Newegg is THE place to go for RAM but unfortunately, they don't ship to Canada




Yes, the external looks ok. I bought my 500 GB for $100 + tax. I recently saw a 1 TB for $160 or so iirc. I never thought I'd use all 500 GB until my 1st day of uni

try looking at www.ncix.com for anything computer related. Thankfully, it's a Canadian-based company. Their site is down atm for me. Dunno why...
