the 3TB portable at PC Lan seems better value @ $125 delivered
irrelevant to this deal as its Out of Stock
My bad, didn't even notice that lol
yea. it would better be 'in store only' as their website has been down for a day or two
Will this work on a Mac?
(just getting the same ol' question out there early)
No
Jokes
Nothing will.
You can just reformat the drive using Drive Utility to OS X Extended (Journaled)
you can also format it to eXFAT, which makes it compatible to both Windows, OSX and also Linux.
There no drives out there which are made for a specific Operating system. All drives can be formatted as FAT, exFAT, NTFS or HFS+
As someone who recently used exFAT on a WD Desktop External for this purpose, probably dont rely on this as a bulletproof option. It worked for a while but now no longer mounts on OS X (i get prompts to repair it etc). Works fine on Windows though still.
I could find any reviews on the monitor, is it any good?
There is your answer :)
Just noticed we have MSY In Perth :)
MSY are insidious that way..
We have for years lol :P
Man wtf is going on… how come 3TB is still this price in mid-2016 !?
I found an invoice - July/2011 with 3 x 3TB from BH Photo… $108 each delivered :|
..and they literally turned up 2.5 days after I hit the order. Was insane.
It's thanks to crappy exchange rates, our AUD has tanked badly since 2011 man.
Now: $1 AUD = $0.73 USD
and according to Deustchebank (sp?) we'll be headed to $1 AUD = $0.60 USD by end of year
It's 3TB, not sure where earth got 4TB from. Earth also mentions in his post:
