Sandra - I bought a plug and go 300GB external Seagate hard drive from
Maplins for £89, and haven't reformatted it, leaving it as fat32, and all
seems ok; so why or what are the advantages of formatting it to NTFS? How
necessary is this? - Andy

| Andy, if you don't mind ordering on line,
| http://www.svp.co.uk
| are doing some pretty reasonably priced Freecom external hard drives at
the
| moment. I got a 250 gb for £65.00 and that included next day delivery.
| They also do a 400 gb model for about another tenner I think. I had to
| format to NTFS and there was lots of info on the net as to how to do this
as
| I hadn't a clue. Even before I formatted it, though, it still just showed
| up as an extra drive on my PC. I can send you the info I used about
