I've been looking for a drive for external storage - been relying on internal storage on an ancient PC for way too long... testing fate!

I'll replace my ~6 or 7 year old main drive with this new one and retire my old one to be a temporary storage for my "to be burnt" items.

500 would get added to my home server and almost double the space on it now.

This would be used as the second drive in my HP Mediavault.

Default Photo Storage

Since I plan to do the exact same thing with drive as I did with the drive in the first competition, had I won it, my answer will be the same.

I currently have a 500gb drive in my system which is quickly filling up due to my main 2 interests

1. Photography (shooting with a Canon 40d)
2. PC games

I could REALLY use this drive as a dedicated disk to hold all my pictures.

I would definitely use this as a backup drive in an external case.

I will use this to set up a hardware RAID 1 mirror of my 500 GB c-drive for redundancy and data protection.

I'd replace my external 250 GB harddrive, and reuse the enclosure.
