Currently looking into getting an external hard drive to install Linux on. I use windows quite a bit (don't kill me :) ) and I've never liked running windows and Linux of the same hd as I think it's much easier to maintain if they have each their hd. Especially seeing as I sometimes chose to reinstall windows or upgrade to a new edition in which case the mbr get rewritten to use the windows boot loader. Therefore I'm in search of a cheap hd to install Linux on. I don't need much storage space as I won't be using it for things like music and video, etc. So I was wondering if anyone has any hd's lying around which they don't use anymore which they would be willing to part with for a price. If it's a usb based external drive that would be perfect, if not I'll just buy a an enclosure for it (what do they cost in England?).
