Need a computer parts shop in Belfast
« on: November 23, 2011, 10:11:26 PM »
Hello all,

Mates hard drive has recently started to get the "click of death", and thus needs a new hard-drive. He'll be driving up to Belfast at the weekend for a gig, and thus shall kill two birds with the one stone by getting a new hard-drive up there.

So, I'm looking for a shop in Belfast city that sells hard-drives. Preferably one that sells Western Digital, as I've gotten burnt by Maxtor, who are now part of Seagate (or the other way around).



tl;dr - need a shop that sells Western Digital SATA hard-drives in Belfast city.

WD HDD's are gold dust since the great flood!
Aye, read about that. So it's lucky he got me to look at his PC now, and not in a months time :D

Still, he needs a HDD, that's at least 500GB's, as the software he uses, ProTools, needs two HDD's to record, so he has to replace the dying one to ensure he can continue to record.

The Digi002 was about ?1500 I think, and he just used the Dell he had. To be honest, it does the job.
