Here's what I think I want to do:
I have a 40GB Mini.
I want an external 7200RPM drive from which to boot
for the speed, and I need backup
I think it doesn't make sense to get some huge GB drive
because then my 40GB drive will not be adequate for back up.
So, I guess I'm looking for a 40-80GB drive.
?: What difference does the buffer size make?
It looks as if 40GB is fast becoming obsolete and they tend to show
2MB
while the 80GB show 8MB.
What do you think?
Cliff:
Have you considered something like the NewerTech miniStacks from OWC,
which match the Mini in appearance, also serve as FireWire/USB hubs,
and available at newly reduced prices:
