I wanna buy a 500 Gb external hard disk. the local shop guy said
Maxtor will cost 4100 Rs
and Free agent near about 4600-4700 Rs
So which is better is free agent worth the extra money.

I'll check if they have W.D.
But incase they don't have W.D. which is better in two?

My friend just got himself a 3.5" Seagate External HDD for Rs 3850/- and the maxtor HDD was available for Rs 3.7k.
Secondly if u wanna go for the 2.5" External HDD then they are bit expensive on the wallet.
The prices for 2.5" which we got were-
320GB WD external for Rs 6.3k
500GB approx Rs 6.7k i suppose.
All prices from Prime ABGB shop at Lamington Rd.

The market price and the website price do not differ much.
