[quote=Freeman]Are you planning on ripping them to MP3s and storing them in that format? If so, I doubt you actually need an external hard drive. Even at higher quality settings, you aren't likely to need that much room on the hard drive. In fact, you could probably store them all on a flash drive for around $30 or less, depending on how much space you needed. I think an external hard drive would be overkill for the amount of space you are talking about, unless there are other reasons you want one. As for not trusting the cloud, I can understand not trusting it by itself, but it would be an excellent way to have an offsite backup solution. If your CD collection is really prized, it would make sense to have some form of backup that would protect you from fire or other disasters that could destroy any local copies. Given the multiple options for free storage of music online now, I don't see why you wouldn't take advantage of at least one of them.[/quote]
