    Hi all,

    Quick question for you all. I have a Asus X52F laptop. The memory is full and i'm running out of things to delete.

    Can anyone recommend a hard drive preferably 750GB plus that will be compatible with my laptop and will perform well?

    Thanks a million.

    If you are looking to replace the drive completely a 1tb drive can be got here cheap enough

    Needs a plug^^^, I think these ones are better than the portable. Robbed from BA Thread.

    Thanks all, yes I am looking to replace the drive completely. Can anyone recommend any simple to use disk imaging software so I can copy over the existing setup?

    I'll just keep it in an external enclosure as a back up. No room for a SSD as well as far as I can tell.
