Just a heads up that these are currently on offer down from £79.99 to £49.99.

Fits snug as a bug in the MDI pocket and provides more than ample storage. I've got to order up my cable now before formatting it to FAT32 and give her a try. Plenty of people on the forum seem to be recommending them, hence why I opted for this one

There's some a smidge cheaper on eBay, but I prefer easy access to warranty back-up for stuff like this

Presume you mean 500GB?

Not a great price:

Maplin are a rip off.

Indeed I did. Amended, thanks!

And as I said, yes there are cheaper out there. Like I also said, I value the experiences and opinions of other happy users and also the ability to pop into a very local store to sort out any issues. Don't like the hassle of dealing with postal returns and such for something I'll use everyday.

I'm sure there are others like me on the forum, so just a heads up to them really, but thanks for adding additional options to consider. Might be worth a list of hard drives that work with MDI and fit the pocket neatly somewhere on the forum
