Hey yawl can you help
    #7748769 - 12/12/07 11:09 AM (16 years, 1 month ago)

I need to reformat my pc. I need to save all my music and pictures. Should I just get a Zen or Ipod? Or should I get a small drive that can save all my media? I got 20 GB on here right now.

Any recommendations?

get an external hard drive.. most mp3 players let you copy your files to them, but then getting them back off the mp3 player is a pain in the a..

i assume that you mean that you have 20 gigs of data and not a 20 gig capacity hard drive.

if so, there are a few programs (one's built-in vista for sure i know) that you can partition your drive with.. that a way you can just make a partition, put all your data on it, and then format the system partition.

you have to have at least 20 gigs of free space to make the partition (if you are making a 20 gig partition that is, i would make it larger since you are probably going to add files to it later).

and if you were saying your hard drive is only 20 gigs then you really really need an upgrade.. i got a 500 gig drive from tigerdirect for ~$100 shipped in about 3 days. check em out.

any more questions, just ask.

Thanks for the help. I meant I have 20 gigs of media files. Pictures/music. Not space on my pc.

I'll look into the partition capabilities. Thanks for the idea. Tones of crap on this computer slowing me down. Still lots of free space though. Time to clean it up.
