Default Best External Hard drive, recommendation

"1TB Western Digital MyBook2 Home Edition - 3.5" USB 2.0 / FireWire 400 / eSata External Hard Drive" found on Scan for £150.

Can't comment of the firewire and eSata transfer rates as I only have the 320GB version which only supports USB2.0. Then again. mine is only for data backup so i'm not all too fussed about the transfer speed.

If you're looking for a 750GB+ drive, it means you got quite a fair bit of data. what is something happens to that. You might be thinking of a serious backup solution. Two of these on your desk next to each other do look cool though.

Cheers:
Chris

I'm with Desertfish, I've 2 mybooks of the 500gb variety; quiet, stylish (like it matters) and not bad value for money for the standard usb-only one's.
