I want to store them in external hardrive, coz you can play them even on DVD player, if your DVD palyer has a USB supported.

What if your DVD notebook hard disk goes dead? What would you do?

I actually put them on a notebook hard disk to be watched later, and i also keeps the copy on a DVD disc as my backup.

I'd rather have them on hard disk, it takes too much time looking for a dvd you like and popping it in, instead of just customizing the settings and whatever the mood you are in, you just click one and the songs plays all in all. That is of course possible if you have a lot of space.

Thanks for the reply laydee, have you backup it other places? other then the hard disk?


myLot reputation of 95/100. laydee (3857)   ranked 71 out of 3,400 in computers  9 months ago

Yeah, I also burn them to DVDs and I store them up online.

I prefer hard disk since I'm an IT guy and it's actually easier to carry those movie and song files around in a hard disk than say, a big pile of discs. The only issue is to find a PC. It's actually easier to get a DVD player than a computer.


myLot reputation of 88/100. heehaw78 (292)   ranked 159 out of 3,400 in computers  9 months ago

Thanks for the reply daydreamer20, i do agree that it is easier to get a DVD player than a computer. So how do you play those songs normally?

In my opinion, some classical songs and movies had better store in DVD. Coz the files on Hard Disk will be updated once at a time. And sometimes, the popular ones will be pick out to review them. That is the reason to keep them on Hard Disk. To sum up, we need to sort them up.


myLot reputation of 88/100. heehaw78 (292)   ranked 159 out of 3,400 in computers  9 months ago

Well if you store them on a DVD, you need also to label it and keep a list of albums or movie titles in it, so that in future you may look for them easier.

I prefer dvd. I had a bad experience with a hard disk that went wrong. It crashed together with the files i have downloaded for years. They were collections of metal albums i downloaded since i was using a dial up connection until i changed to dsl. It's a lot of albums gone to waste. I knew it, i shouldn't leave everything stored in a hard disk. I was able to saved some mp3 after i backed them up on my dvd. Next time, i will burn them right away on dvd before my hard disk will crash again.


myLot reputation of 88/100. heehaw78 (292)   ranked 159 out of 3,400 in computers  9 months ago

what you gone thru, i also had experienced it, sure it does feels bad to loose those wonderful songs. i also put them on a DVD now.Thanks for the reply modstar! By the way what metal band you lost?

i stored my files in hard disk,..rather than dvd
hard disk has a large memory rather than a dvd but sometimes i stored movies and music in the dvd.


myLot reputation of 88/100. heehaw78 (292)   ranked 159 out of 3,400 in computers  9 months ago

Have you back it up onto a DVD? What would you do if the hard disk crashes? thanks for the reply inuceres.

I prefer storing them in the harddisk, the capability is big enough. It's convenient to delete the mp3 or films I no longer liked .

I think an external hard disk will be better we can store our files very fastthumbup.Hard disks don't get damaged easily like dvds.DVD is also good but we can use if for some extra space.If the external hard disk is full we can buy a new one and store files again.I make use of my pen drive to store important and extra files. happyhappy
