*Manticore* 1,893 Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 I would say an external hrd drive or whatever they're called. Or save them on CDs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluepeter 5,627 Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 A decent sized USB stick should do the trick mate, they cost bugger all. Quick look (I'm at work) shows this one: http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/4-/11984504/Pla...ve/Product.html It'll hold 2000 songs and costs a tenner. There will be better makes/models out there, but I can't look just now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brissyger 8 Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 I back mine onto external hardrives because it would take forever to backup 100GB of music on cds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
