I took a 500 gig drive out of my old DVR and bought a removable drive caddy from Newegg. It's so I can digitize my DVD movie collection and put em on the 500 gig drive. I started with the keepers and then again for more keepers to add.
I got 415 movies in and it's full. I have over 1000 DVDs though so I thought, drives are pretty cheap right?
On Newegg looking at 1 TB drives I found something interesting. I found a Seagate 1 TB Constellation Enterprise HDD for $49. I have the very same drive as my main HDD but I paid $120 for it. It is solid.
This one is for $49 new but no longer supported by Seagate. Instead I got a year warranty from Newegg with option to extend. Knowing how well my drive worked I'm not worried. I've had my PC since 2012.
I have a few DVDs that won't let me rip so there's probably more after this.
