Aldi are selling a 320 GB external hard drive for $99 (see ALDI - special buys from thurs 28 jul - hurry, limited stocks in store* (http://www.aldi.com.au/au/html/offers/2827_18543.htm)). You need to be very carful however, the operating software is infected with the conficker virus (see AusCERT - ALDI 4-in-1 device spreads conficker (http://auscert.org.au/14652))!
Cheers

sounds too dear for 320 gig. I have heard of 1 terabyte for $99, and 500 gig for $49--.

It's a lot more than a HDD.
External 4-in-1 Hard Drive, DVD, USB and Card Reader Device
I need an external DVD for my netbook....

I've heard you can get the included software for free, if you do your homework and look around the internet in the right places. :p

I thought it was some kind of Federal offence to knowingly sell or supply software containing malware???

Hmm... That's very expensive.
2TB would be cheap :)
Office works had 1TB in that ball park.

I picked up a 1TB Seagate external for $79 a few months ago .... and the 2TB version goes for around $129.

Did it also include a card reader and CD/DVD burner like the Aldi one?
