    Need a laptop for personal use. No gaming.
    Will be used to store thousands of photos, Internet, watching movies/tv, backing up my 13g iPhone, use word, email.
    Exactly what in terms of memory, speed, processor etc should I be lookin for? Where is the best place to purchase?

    Would this be good?

    Around 500 is the budget.

    If you don't want to play games or do anything too processer intensive then an intel I5 is a bit of overkill

    Trhat said, if you want an I5, This is about 480 euros delivered

    The above and below laptops also have 2 usb 3.0 and 1 usb 2.0 connectors. usb 3.0 us 10 times faster when used with a compatible device.

    500gb hard drive is more than enough for most peoples photo collection

    If you have your heart set on the bigger hard drive and are prepared to have a processer that's more than capable of most day to day tasks but won't play the latest games, this is only €364 delivered and it has a 1000gb hard drive and everything you would need
