No idea what's going on, my signal would drop for no apparent reason and the speed would jump around anywhere between 1Mbps and 56Mbps.

    Blue ray

    i agree. TheEnd187 your such a fanboy. i own a ps3 and like it more than the 360 but still... the 360 has its good points (as well as its bad points of course). anyways this is a thread about blu-ray, not ps3 vs. 360, nor hd-dvd vs. blu-ray. its blu-ray only... :snob: you people are just too...

    Blue ray

    :confused: nobody is argueing about ps3 and 360.... just WorldIndustries adding in a pointless comment :snob: 100GB discs would be cool. lol you could just back up to 2 discs like how people back up to multiple DVDs. I'm sure blank blu-ray discs will become cheap as the blu-ray movies are...

    Blue ray

    :confused: so why did they sell more because of the ps3? so people thought... "oh! the ps3 has a blu-ray player, lets stock up on as many blu-ray discs as possible no matter what the movie or quality..." is that what your saying? you spelt 'neither' wrong... maybe you should spend less time on...

    Blue ray

    Ha ! Such a typical 360 fan. for starters HD-DVD's are.... 15GB per layer... not 50... :confused: and blu-ray disc's are 25GB per layer... they're also working on multiple layers for blu-ray (so that it could achieve 200GB).. HD-DVD on the other hand.... i dont know, have only heard of...

    purchasing an external hard drive

    yeah thats what i thought, not all enclosures lists a capacity limit... i was thinking about just ignoring the limit and see if it works but thats quite a lot of money to be wasteing... (especially since im on a student budget...) na, thats cheap... cheaper than the ones i've looked at the past...

    purchasing an external hard drive

    right i've bought the harddrive now, and i've decided to fork out that extra bit of cash to try out this eSATA connection. the problem is, just as i was about to pay for the enclosure, i find out that it only supports up to 400GB. i tried a different make and model but still it only supports...
