Which is a better buy -- DVD-RW or more storage?
I'm mainly an end user who has a lot of video files on his computer 9about 100% anime). I'm trying to deicde which would be a better buy -- a DVD-RW drive or an external hard drive (I've run out of room for internal hard drives).
Here is my setup:
AMD 2600+ CPU
windows XP Home
DVD-ROOM (non recordable) and CD-RW drives
Internal 160 GB and 100 GB hard drives
Dial=up Internet
4 USB 2.0 ports 9two in use)
Free ethernet port
No foirewire
I only have about $120 US to spoend. what would be the better buy given the task at hand (storing, archiving and copying video files).
