I need to buy a USB 3.0 external drive for my new iMac but don't know what to order. What has some good value?
There is a 3TB Seagate that is a good deal currently. Can't recall model name, was on sale over BF for $100. I got it for $130 before hand.
I just got one of these, works great.

(plus the 20% tax we have to pay) WOW
20% tax??? Wow, I thought 9% was bad!
Universal Healthcare isn't free ;-)
Up here in Canada our sales tax is 14% and we get healthcare too, worth it even at 20% in my opinion.
I've been using this specific hard drive since they released the USB 3.0 version. Even before the announced the new iMacs. I was just hoping they would have it on the new iMac. Got them on sale during Black Friday and now I have a total of three.

I like this drive.
It's been a while since I reformatted a drive for Mac. Do I need special software?
