Author Topic: External HDD came!  (Read 1086 times)

80gb of fun! Im using it on my laptop, which came with 60gb. Now what to fill it with?

Blockland, Blockland, Blockland, and more Blockland. :3

Blockland, Blockland, Blockland, and more Blockland. :3

Already backed up my saves. Blockland is staying on my computer, as I might not bring my HDD with me everywhere, as it needs its own power supply D;

What else would you put on your laptop?

Blender, CCleaner, Defraggler, webcam software, Flock, Google Earth, IE, Mouse Software, Printer Software, TwoGuns, Dwarf Fortress, Firefox, Google Chrome, Mozillia Minefield, OOo, Paint.net, Phun, uTorrent, Python, SB-S&D, Constructor, Ventrilo, World of goo, World of warcraft, exc.

And I wonder why my computer has run out of space D:

USE IT TO RECORD/SAVE GAME FOOTAGE WITH.

Srsly, saving it to a different hard drive saves a lot of strain if you record with Fraps or something similar.

....At least that's what I hear.

that would make sense, as it would remove strain off the HDD that's running the game, thanks.

Doesn't make sense at all.

The lag caused by recording ingame footage is the result of an increased load on the GPU, not the HDD. Using an external HDD isn't going to help much (if any) and may actually lower performance.

Installing WoW On it now, some of my friends play it, so I play on it also with them sometimes.
