doesn’t seem like a good price, but this is a more expensive drive.
Not big enough, I’m afraid. Maybe next time, woot!
Whats up with the bitmap to read before posting??
No woot tonight

retails for a lot more lowest on froogle is 134 but its still only 20 Gig!!

That’s up to your BIOS on your computer. Look for a “Boot from USB” option.
Is this a good deal? Good Brand? Cant find anything compatible…
10 dollars more…but twice the space.

A few reasons (just guessing).
Prevents ‘bots’ from 'first post’ing.
Prevents bots from posting.
no power supply needed powered from USB, that alone makes this worth while 
anyone wanna buy a cute girl a portable 20 gig hard drive?
If your BIOS supports “Boot from USB device”.
i don’t know… seems very expensive… is it just me or have woots lately been either unimpressive or expensive? my 30gig removable was only 70$ and that’s more than i’d ever need…
–jon–
Yes if your motherboard supports.
I know the new dell 5150’s support usb boot. I ghosted 4 of them using my USB drive to load dos and ghost.
UMM…No…Realize that you cant BOOT to OS from this device…its USB…USB devices are not recognized till OS fuly loads and loads the USB drivers. I would double check WOOTs claim to “boot” without going into OS…unless this device has a COM connection besides the USB.
DOPE!
Cheap external harddrives are always a great thing to have, but I’ve never dealt with a Soyo PC that was very decent, I am goint to assume everything else they make is probably the same low quality product. I’d be afraid to spend 70 bucks on something that would last only a month.
Only 20GB’s?, I need at Least 120GB!!!,
Let’s see one of these for $169.99 and I’ll buy a couple!
