I have over 15,000 digital photos on my hard drive!!! That should be reason enough
Hi! Great giveaway. I would love to have this but I certainly won’t say I am more deserving than anyone else. If I am lucky enough, I would enjoy it! Thanks for the chance.
I would absolutely love to win this because I have so many pictures on my machine. I would feel so much better knowing I had them backed up somewhere. You’d think after two computer crashes, I’d have one of these already, but I don’t because I’m lazy that way.
I don’t think I “should” win, but I sure would love to!!! I work with graphics a lot and I need a bigger hard drive. I also work on two different computers so that I have the extra space and something like this would be very helpful. I also take A LOT of digital pictures and I’m always burning things on to CD”s to free up space on my computer. This looks PERFECT for what I need. Thank you for the most generous offer.
My husband has been whining that he can’t buy me a new camera because I don’t have enough space for more pictures on my PC. If I had a new hard drive, he would HAVE to buy that new camera. Soon. Like before my son graduates high school in a few eeks.
This would be great as we are running out of hard drive space on our laptop (because of so many pictures of our daughter : ) ). Actually we have discussed getting an external hard drive, but haven’t done it yet. So, it would be the perfect Father’s Day gift for my techie husband.

My daughter graduates in a few weeks too, and my husband has a camera, but we need more storage. More storage. If I won, I’d have more storage.
Well, I would like to win simply because I have been looking for a HD for a while, as mine is just about full from the many pictures I take as I travel, and since I often work on the road, I need to have all my files right with me.

Oh, I totally need this! I take way too many pictures – and in turn, those pictures take WAY too much memory on my hard drive. I actually bought a little Seagate extra drive – but it is already filling up fast.
because we take TOO many pictures.
(or not enough)
I take a lot of photos. And running out of space to store them all is always a worry – this would help a great deal!
I write. I write a lot.
Ok, so I am an author and would love to have all my WIPs (works in progress) portable so that my writing partner and I could access them easily!
I would dedicate this hard drive entirely to pictures! That would just be too cool. Thanks for the generous giveaway.
My dh could really use this to move things back and forth from office to home.
I’d like to win because I’m a photographer who doesn’t have enough room for all her pictures on her computer when she travels!
I think I should win this, because I’d save it for a surprise for my hubby, I know he’s been wanting a Maxtor HD for a while now, we just haven’t had the extra $$ to get one…. Great giveaway! Thanks!
We need this. My husband and I have noticed that as we are getting older our memories are starting to fade. This is why we have to turn to artificial memory to supplement the loss of our brain power – and why we would be very happy to win this hardrive!
Thanks for such a cool giveaway!
We need a portable hard drive to back up all our pictures (over 4,000) of them, of our precious boys. Thanks for the contest!
I think I should win this because I have 2 boys, 9 & 12, who are growing like weeds and I take lots of pics of them doing sports, activities at school and family outings. I would hate to lose the ones I have on my PC and would love to have a place to safely store them. Thank you for offering such a GREAT giveaway!
I shoud win cause my computer keeps crashing and I’m sick of paying a company to recover my pictures-AHHH!
Why should I win? Because a few months ago my computer crashed and I lost everything. I’m a freelance writer, so everything is…a lot. I’ve been saving my pennies to purchase a portable hard drive, but winning one instead would mean that I can use those pennies to pay down my credit card debt instead!
Oh, I so need this hard drive! Yes, for my irreplaceable photos!
Enter me, please!
Wow, great contest. I’d like to win because I have over 10,000 photos that need to be backed up!
Awesome prize!!! I have a billion pictures that I need to back up along with a lot of videos of my kids.
I definitely need this after my computer crashed in September and I lost everything even my son’s pictures that are gone forever and files pertaining to work. Thanks for the giveaway!
Well, I’ve learned the importance of backing up photos recently. Our family room caught on fire a week and a half ago, while dh was home and me and the kids were gone. When we came back, the first thought of mine, after I discovered that dh was safe, was “what about the pictures?!?” Dh did save my computer (at the sacrifice of his own), so the pictures were safe, but what if the computer had burned?
I would love to win this for my husband as his Father’s Day gift. I never know what to get him and I know this is a gift he will appreciate, since he is on the road a fair bit, as well as working from both home and office.
This would be great as I do alot of work from home and I could carry this back and forth instead of emailing myself over and over again! But I would also love it for photos..no, work is a better idea.
OK, I have to enter here because I really need one of these. I love taking photos, and I’m running out of space on my laptop to store them…of course I could always get another laptop:)
I reallly could use this for my digital photos and my ebooks.
This is just too cool. Please enter me! Thanks!!
No reason why I should win over anyone else, but I sure would love to have this. My DH is quite the techie and he would be quite thrilled to have this!
I need to win because my hubby has ripped every movie and CD in his vast collection, and I keep running out of space.
My harddrive is always full of pictures and videos. We are always in need of more backup storage! Thanks.
Not too long ago our computer crashed and I lost all of those percious digital pictures of my dd. I don’t want that to happen again. This would be perfect!
I think our family needs to win this because we’re compulsive picture-takers and never have enough room on our computer to download them all! And the in-laws are always asking for more pics of their grandkids.
Oh this would be absolutely perfect for when I am working on the laptop for work, and come home to use my computer. Please enter me in this great giveaway. Thank you
I’d love to have this because I’ve lost so many pictures because my I’ve had two computers crash in the past year. I would be so greatful, because I will be sending in my computer for an overhaul in the next few weeks and would love to have a “real” backup of my stuff!
I can’t afford a new computer or external hardrive, and my computer is far too full of music and photographs to run properly
This would be an amazing thing to win!

i need this for my pictures – oh what a blessing this would be – thanks so much!
I’ve lost data because of my hard drive crashing in the past, but have never come up with a good (read, easy enough I can do it myself instead of dh having to do it for me) way to do consistent backups, this would be GREAT!
I really need this to help organize our entire family’s digital photo collection.
Every time my mother and I talk about digital photos she shakes her head at me and says “You need to back those up.” This would be great for that, and possibly for my husband’s future files for his budding home business!
I’d love to win this to save all my Paint Shop Pro stuff on and free up our computer!
This is just cool. I am a digital packrat. I could back up everything on my pc… twice! and still have room for more stuff.
Since my laptop crashed and I almost lost all of my pictures I have been researching one of these…This one looks great! Thanks for such a generous giveaway!
I have thousands of pictures saved on my hard drive. That and I am always having to take my work home or on trips.
This is a smartly-devised contest! If there is anything makes me unique -
I wanted to ruffle it out at the
end of our Clean Tech Forum seminar hosted
by a 6000-member non-profit professional organization. If you are interested in similar Clean Tech involvement, please feel free to drop me a line.
Why should I win? Because my media, photo, data and system back-up drives are all nearly FULL and my one remaining external HD only holds 40 GB
i.e. I NEED SOME SPACE!
My computer is getting older and I’m scared that I’ll lose the valuable documents and pictures on it (trips to Russia, Ukraine, etc.) but the money I would like to put towards a hard drive keeps getting used up in car repairs. Isn’t that always the way?
