Quick, need an external HDD!

[DarkRider23]

I was thinking of a 500 GB WD Passport, but after reading reviews about the software that's used to back up files, I'll pass. I would rather just have a standard USB External HDD. I don't need any fancy software to back up files, thanks very much.

I'm looking for somewhere around 500 GB. Preferably on Amazon so I can order it with one day shipping. A B&M store would be cool too if their prices are on par with Amazon's.

You don't HAVE to use the software that's on the HDD for backup. Mine had a folder with the backup software on the HDD itself, and I just Shift+Delete'd it. Problem solved.

There should be a 500 GB HD at Target for $48.99. Some people have found it for $17. Refer to here:
