Looking for a new external HD.  Must be a good one.

I have a few WD external HDDs that have worked wonderfully.  One is a 350GB (I think), the other is a portable 120GB.  Absolutely no complaints.

at least a 5 year warranty? That's wishful thinking

Pizza guys are getting worse and worse looking. I guess all the good ones went into porn.

That's kind of what stumped me.  3 years is the most common.  I only had a 5 year warranty once with any drive, that being a Raptor drive.

Throwing the USB3 requirement on there really sunk the rest of the options that came to mind, and NEEDING 2TB doesn't broaden the spectrum any...lol.

Perhaps he's better off building his own.

Well this fits all of your specs: http://bit.ly/cw6nbF

Nothing on newegg has a 5 year warranty.

I'm assuming you could get the BB extended warranty to get 5 years?

edit:

For just $7,300 more you could get a 2TB internal HDD.

Built-in espresso machine optional.

7 years from the manufacturer. Stick out tongue

i don't think BB does extended warranties on hard drives, but Geek Squad will come to your house and install it for you.

And charge you $99 for the effort it takes to plug in that USB cable?  lol    I love the Geek Squad.
