I would back up my photos, college homework, web sites and family history on the hard drive.
I am recently in shortage of backup memory, and a 2TB ext HDD would be more than enough! (I am a web designer!)
I totally need this as my old 80gig is running out of space! I need a new place to that all my design things can call home… Or a backup home, kind of like homes rich people have just in case something happens to their old one :P
What would I use it for? To backup the ever growing photo and video database of photos of my (soon to be) 1yr old. I’m running out on my 500gb drive. That’s what I get, I guess, for shooting in RAW.

My current externals are pretty tiny — barely enough for a few Time Machine backups and some duplicates of important files. I really need somewhere to keep everything without burdening my internal drive.
I’m a film student, and 720p footage takes up a butt load of space. I can always use the extra 2TBs!

Wow! I would really love this drive for my .raw fotos that take up to 120GB on my laptop drive now!
I am a budding designer and am overwhelmed by the content provided by design blogs all over the net. The pain they take to give out quality content is seriously appreciable.

( currently my SATA 250 GB is filled with 140 GB of design resources , and its not enuf ! )

I’ve been doing music production (specifically mixing/mastering) for over a year now, and just started getting into video editing, so I have a lot of audio and video files to work with, including audio loop libraries.
I have also been designing the art work for the album covers and recently started doing logos for people again.
So this external hard drive would be ideal to use for all my audio/video/design project files, audio libraries, and stock photos & design elements.
Since the drive is already formatted for a Mac, I can just plug it into the Mac that I use for all my production/design work and start using it right away.

I would use this lovely best of a storage device for storing days upon days of illegally downloaded music! :)
Ooooohhh…Ohhhh… I would love to win the external drive so I can properly manage my photos and client files… Currently I’m juggling the photos and files between a couple hard drives and my laptop’s internal drive (never a good idea)… I’m finding myself having to even delete some photos/files to make room for current projects (a BIGGER bad idea – I’ve even lost some important memories and work – very sad ending)

This stuff looks hot. I could use extra HDD to store all of my thousands old and current photos and as well as videos. And other stuff, too.

This would be awesome. My 500G drive just died.
I’m a band photographer, and I take anywhere from 150-500 shots per band I shoot, in high res. I could certainly use the storage to hold my picture files! :)
I would use it to back up all my projects as well as the 1000s of photographs I have of my cats.
Not only would this 2 TB ext HD look sexy on my desk next to my MacBook Pro, but it would allow me to backup my entire website, clean up my computer to be used strictly as a work computer, and I could make a few bucks selling my 3 overpriced ext HD’s (2 80GB and 1 60GB)

Oh I would REALLY store the video files in HD, including the original footage. And of course all the media files like music and stuff :)

I would use it to better organize my files and back up, back up, back up!
Thanks for the great contest, hopefully this will come in handy for someone starting school, or in very need of more space.
I would use that awesome HD to store all of my thousands of pictures, and graphic designs.. I am a student and have lots of stuff I’ve done. It’s better to have it on an EHD just incase your computer crashes!
This would be perfect for keeping my photos organized in one spot!
2TB would be ideal for storing my audio and video libraries.
i would back up all my university documents, photos, and my music!!
I would use this hard drive to store a backup copy of the Library of Congress. At the rate this government is going, they just might need to access my backup when the S**t hits the fan.
Oh yeah, I would also store my plans to take over the world on this hard drive.
And then I would back up my iMac.
I would use this to backup my photos! Thank you.
The Hard Drive would be a great help to me. I will use it(if i win) to backup all of my photos, website site post, projects, important family document, School work. This would also help me orginize my computer betwwen school, family, work, etc. Like i said before this freebie would help me a lot.
Just like everyone eles i would backup my own computer
I could totally use the hard drive to move my music/movie collection so I can free up space on my other two drives for more backups and other nonsense. The freebies? Depending on what they are, I’d use them for anything and everything I could possibly imagine.

Yo dawg, I herd you like External Hard Disk Drives, so I put an External Hard Disk Drive in your External Hard Disk Drive so you can store files while you store files in your stored files.
First… I would look at it and bask in the glow of my most AWESOME winningest self (…might drool a little, but I keep paper towels nearby).
THEN…
I would take it out of the package… ever. so. gently. If wrapped in plastic, it would remain wrapped in plastic so as to prevent any second-hand drool damages, thus voiding the warranty.
…after a couple more minutes of basking, I would CONNECT it to my Airport Extreme to be my first wireless, home network drive. (*sniff* i would be so happy…*sniff*)
..and FINALLY… I would…well… I guess. I would. ..*whispering* backup my files like everyone else would do */whispering*… BUT THERE WOULD BE TEARS OF JOY as this was taking place.
I would also NAME the drive… and its name shall be….MediaMilitia_VS_ColorBurned…
I could so use this for my backups!
I’d backup my files and probably use it to store shows from my DVR.
i would give it to my boyfriend. be cause he’s one cool dude. who really loves hard drives.
I will backup my big Photoshop elements,flash projects,3d animations, illustrator,creative videos,tutorials,designing tutorial and many more.Don’t forget about my whole website backup!!! It will very cool.
I could use this for backups of my internal hdd
I am a young man who’s gotten started in the wonderful world of video production.
I’d use this hard drive to store photo/video/audio files as well as use it as the TimeMachine drive for my Mac.
Please and thank you!
I would use this to edit films that me and my friends are making, but we require additional storage.

I’d use it to store my ever expanding multmedia library, including my own home-produced videos.
I would use the hard drive to store my ever expanding collection of digital family photos and videos.
Ive just set up little freelance company with a friend and this drive would be great to store all files etc. Also the Media Militia files would be great help with designs and illustrations! As were very short on cash a 2TB drive is a great luxury to have.
I would backup my Desktop Mac and Laptop – and save all my Photos and music to make more space for work and layered PSD files. I’m really keen to try out WD – I’ve used another brand for years, but think it’s time for a change: )

I always had a Western Digital external hard drive but the much older one that holds 256 GB. I used to use it to keep all my graphic work, that’s clients and personal. Than one I look and its not working. So all of my unfinished projects, my company logos, client back up works, everything is all gone.
With that said I would use the 2TB Western Digital external harddrive to start all over.
Memory gets more elusive with age. Please, sir, can I have some more? And, I think it would look cool on my bookshelf. Love the design.
I’d start an Internet company. Put the drive online.

I would use it to insure my video editing & music are safely tucked away so I can go skiing & snowboarding as soon as the season gets here. To make more films & videos, of course.
I would show it to everyone who came in my house and explain to them at length just exactly HOW big a terabyte is and, of course, how cool colorburned.com is.

Great contest idea! As a start-up doing web & logo design, iPhone app development and everything else, this would be a great present for my biz partner. She needs the space horribly…always asking me to delete my music and pics to make it work. She would be stoked if I surprised her with this ; )
I’d buy an HD video camera just so I could make blatant use of the space.
What a great giveaway! I would use this to backup photos, photoshop files, etc. Thank you!

I would back up my projects, icons, patterns, stocks, and another stuff. I have many psd files and my disc 120gb is to small. I need use pendrives and cds. This is terrible.
I’d store my photography files; I’m a band photographer, and I take anywhere from 150-500 shots per band per show. Makes for lots of files! And shooting in large sizes (to enable printing poster sizes) eats up a lot of file space. I’d love the extra storage space so I don’t overrun my laptop!
This is awesome. Thanks for doing this!
Currently have an old laptop and the hard drive is nearly full so this would be wonderful.
I would use it to visit potential clients with samples of work or websites or blogs I’ve designed for them, As well as back up other information that would be handy on this type of thing, install other software on (since there isn’t much room left). I’m trying to build my business and right now need all the help I can get to gain clients.
Whether I win or not…It’s awesome that folks do these types of things.
Thanks much!

The question isn’t what would I do with it. It’s what wouldn’t I do with it! I’m actually digitally cataloging my DVDs to my PC at the moment and it would be very useful to have the extra storage space so I don’t run out.
I would use it for backup. Never know when you need something that you deleted. Also never know when your computer’s HD might fail.

Backups. Lots and lots of backups. Oh, and then some more backups.
2 TB would be so awesome… that should last anyone quite a while! I’d store photos, music, design work and resources, and I wonder if I could ever fill up the whole drive!
Before using it for its obvious storage intention, I would lye it down on the road out the front of my house, put a plank of wood on it, get on my super sweet racer bmx, get a gnarly run up and jump so high that I touch the misty white clouds! After I return from the sky I will attach a chain to it and go out clubbing. All the chicks will see it and will want to buy me drinks all night because I look so delicious! After a night of super awesome lovin I will upload all the footage of my wild day(and night) to my brand new drive and you will all be jealous of my awesomeness and ability to store lots of awesome stuff on my awesome drive!
I would use this 2TB HD to edit my new short film!! It would help me out BIG time!! Support your local indie filmmaker – give them a 2TB hard drive!! :-D
