What are you getting for Black Friday?
i'm thinking of getting a 2TB drive to back up my movie library... it's starting to swell up quite a bit.

I'm thinking of picking up a tv. Been using my projector, but I'm building a new house and there isn't really a place in the living room for it.

Hard drives, yea, that sounds like a great idea. It is surprising how quickly you can fill a 2TB. Nothing for me for Black Friday, I just blew the budjet on a couple Echo's.

If your hard drive is swelling, you should stop playing with it so much. You could also try applying some ice.makryger wrote:i'm thinking of getting a 2TB drive to back up my movie library... it's starting to swell up quite a bit.

$120 shipped (Canada), instant discount (no MIR - I hate those).

Hopefully a Sony Nex camera if I can find one cheap.
Probably a 32GB or 64 GB SD card if they are cheap, and a 1TB or 2TB external drive for my WiiU. That is about it. pretty easy this year.

Best Buy has a 40 inch Toshiba LCD for $179. Have to decide if I want to deal with the mob that will be there :/ Also, CompUSA is having a 120GB Vertex 3 SSD for $50. If I do go out I might as well get that too.

One of these in a box would work nicely.
I bought two.
That's about it for my BF shopping

Yeah I looked at that, but I don't think there is anything different from other cheap drives. Amazon has them at 3.5 stars.
2 year warranty.
I'm going to throw them into a storage server box for duplication.

What a shame we don't have Black Friday in the Netherlands. Now I'll have to wait 'till Christmas!
