I asked around for seagate - 229 for 40GB , 339 for 100GB
There is also a cheaper version which is to attach a normal hdd to a casing. I guess the casing has some componment that allows it to connect via USB to the PC. Its about $140 for 40GB. Asked about Maxtor, but it is just bulky and meant for backup purposes... -

Its quite good since I dun have a CD burner and i need to store large files for my assignments and projects.
Its also great for backing up my friends' impt data when helping them troubleshoot their comp. -
It takes an ah beng to handle another ah beng... Next time they give you a hard time, tell uncle sil... I 'll show them a thing or 2...Originally posted by mistyblue:I hate to go Sim Lim cause the people super rude. Go Funan
On a more serious note, the bengs at sim lim only like to handle ppl who know what they want. And it helps to be technical savvy too. If you duno what you want and are not very good with IT, they tend to be rude and abrupt with you. I'm used to it... Cos i always tell them i'm a computer idiot...

Well it does not matter. I'm in IT all my life but I deal with server class/enterprise servers. I find PCs/servers are just tools. Hence nothing to get arrogant about. What my company sells is in 10K to a couple of millions. I am technical but lost touch with PCs some time already.Originally posted by SilverPal:It takes an ah beng to handle another ah beng...

If they don't have the time of day for me, then I would not bother loh. Cause I can always bring my money elsewhere even if I pay premium for just the service and to be educated on the spot about IT products and range available for my needs. If I am humble enough to ask and learn, then if the person decides to be rude. Then its too bad. They lost the opportunity to make me a recurring customer. Ultimately its their loss. Just like this place I bought the HDD from, I've just intro someone to go ther. Hence they are going to get more business. -

The service quality in sg is really quite dismal. I do agree with you that we shouldn't pay to get snubbed.
I wanna learn about servers and the such. Maybe next time i pai ni wei shi... -
