Well suppose there were like 11GB of temporary files, so it isn't so bad I deleted them all and it works fast now.

But I do feel so bad for not researching further to get something really good, in the future I will do that.

But at least this is a Dell and it works (their support is wonderful!).

I have a laptop with only 40gbs Hard disk drive so I purchased
an external HDD that is 160gb large. It plugs into the USB port
with no extra power required.

It works great when I am plugged into AC, But when i run on
batteries I unplug it when its not required. It does not have a
on/off switch.

My primary use is to offload any downloads that are two weeks
or older. My Art library of graphics are there so i can perform
a quick search when I need a graphic. All of my pics are there
for instant searching using keywords

That allows me to continue to use the laptop for another year!
