2nd Hard Drive for my M18x. Which should I go for?

[stitch-up]

Hi guys, my first post to this forum and of course it's a request for help!

My M18x has a single hard drive, a 750Gig. I'd like to fit a 2nd hard drive of equal or greater capacity just for data storage. I'm not really a gamer so ultimate speed isn't a factor.

I'd be grateful if someone could suggest a make/model I should consider?

Many thanks

John

If your just going for HDDs and not SSDs (which are hella faster) then you can search Newegg.

If all you want is storage, why not get a NAS or external HDD and attach it through the modem/router? You can get a heck of a lot more capacity.

Thanks for the reply & I have thought about a NAS, BUT, I take my laptop away with me and I don't fancy humping the NAS too! The Laptop weighs enough

I suppose. I was looking into making my NAS available online. That way you can access your storage at all times.

Good idea, never thought of that

Thanks.

I only put 512GB ssd in my M18x and use a $189.00 3TB usb 3.0 external drive I bought at Costco that is only half the speed of my ssd drives.
