Hi Gang:
My son would like an external hard drive: 7200 rpm, 120Gigs,
Firewire. All the ones I have checked on seem to average in the
$250-270 range.....but they all seem to be pretty much alike in their
descriptions....
ALL USE THE SAME:
Bus Interface -- Firewire (IEEE 1394/Link Compliant, 2 ports)
Capacity 120 Gigs
Max Data transfer rate 400Mbps (50MB/sec)
System Requirement Mac w/ fiirewire interface and OS 8.6+
Power supply 110v-240v auto switching external power adapter
Standard Mechanism: 7200rpm ATA/100 2 mb cache buffer
