Three weeks in sunny old England. 7300 shutter clicks. 2295 unique photographs after four passes of "weeding". Approximately 13MB of disk space per photograph on my web server (including RAW original, full size JPG, and downsized JPGs). About 30GB total disk space required. Only 24GB available on server. Help!

Western Digital 500GB external drive with FW and USB 2.0 for only $139?
Cool. Not exactly what I had in mind, but I've ordered one of them now. They won't ship it outside of the USA, but I'm in San Jose all next week, so I've just had it sent to the hotel for pickup when I arrive.
Mmm.. Maybe I should get two of them for a RAID1.. [EDIT]especially as many of them seem to have had power-supply issues in the past[/EDIT].

Hmmm... I didn't notice (or even think to read) the reviews before buying. This morning I was close to buying a 300GB Maxtor OneTouch. Then I saw this on sale for $20 cheaper and I get 200GB more space and Firewire. Seemed like a deal. Hopefully I (and you) luck out.

I'm not particularly concerned about it. I've got spare PSUs here, a spare enclosure, and heck.. I might even just pull out the bare drive and install it directly regardless. This is still cheaper than a bare 500GB drive for me right now.

I am not aware of any 200s that are not S-ATA. Do you know of any?

I've seen 120GB notebook drives off and on at Fry's for $120. Not what you're looking for, but I'm always tempted. They're usually only one-day sales, though, so timing is important.
If you're in San Jose next week is there any plan for a mini-meet?
edit: As a matter of fact (just now checked) today is one of those rare days for the 120GB drives.

Mmm.. $120 is pretty much my normal cost for a 120GB notebook drive. But I'd like something larger.

I haven't seen many 160s available as far as deals go. Newegg does have a $95 120GB drive here that has been tempting me for the past couple days.

Those WD enclosures are really nice, I just picked one up locally at a CompUSA that's going under for about $150 after taxes.
I think it's the first enclosure to have fans built in (at least that I've used personally), plus they have variable fan speeds depending on either heat or large file transfers (not 100% positive on which it is), plus it has a nice metal case, with alot of vent holes around the bottom/back/top of the unit for pretty decent cooling.
The power supply is an external brick, so if it does go, it shouldn't be anything tricky to replace (hopefully?)

All of my (years old) USB2 enclosures have fans. But they're all fixed-speed fans. Quote:

What voltage/current does the brick supply?
Thanks

Ahh.. as suspected, they've pulled the shipment back from the docks and refunded my purchase price (well, not really, I actually lose out about $10 on the two-way exchange rate conversions, with no loot to show for it).

Finally (for now), the Monday lunch photos are now up.
Sometime between now and Christmas, I'll sift through the other 2.5 weeks worth of UK photos, and perhaps post a link to a representative selection.
