Hi there. I'm modding a old wii and need a cheap storage solution as I don't need 1 terrabyte of storage and don't really want to spend $80 of a new external HDD.
I only need 200-300 gigs and have recently found out getting an old Sata drive and buying an enclosure for it. I've seen some dudes on Youtube set them up and it seems pretty straight forward.
I've seen a bunch of hard drives for $20-30 and it looks like a good idea.
So my questions are.
1.Will this work with a Wii?
2. Will the harddrive need its own power supply? or can the Wii power it?
3. What is a good brand of HDD to get and a good encloser to get? and more importantly what brands should I avoid.
4. Is there any other important info I should know before buying one?
