bummer thing happened the other day..i'm ripping cd's into the 'puter and i ran out of room. seems like collection through H takes up 60 mb's..i'm maxed out 1/3 of the way thru.

so I think i need an external harddrive. circuit city has the 250 mb. western digital on sale for $219, hooks up through usb. good buy or bad buy? like or don't like?

what does everyone else you to hold their stash? do you rip the entire cd or cherry pick?

any help greatly appreciated!!

oh, i'm an idiot...i meant gigs...what kind of crap computer would i have if i maxed out at 50 mb's?

again..any help much apreciated!!
