[KDF]

I found the WD books to be pretty noisy though.

£140 for a nano. I got a 30gb video one for only £10 more. and that was 4 months ago

 

[Alan]

Indeed tho she doesn't need the 30gig matey...

 

[andywright182]

neither do i but for the extra tenner would have been rude not to! still nano's are decent enough. I am looking to buy from mesh at the end of this month so will be good to hear how it goes with them and thoughts on the pc when it arrives
