Hey all,

I got tired of writing 16 CDR's to do a full backup (no music
included) and the little keychain drives are too small, so I
got one of these

http://www.provantage.com/seagate-st9100801u2-rk~7SEGR00J.ht m

Had it for a week now and it works very well. Very small and it
goes nicely in my briefcase. At 100G (they go up to 160G)
for 118 USD it's a good deal. It's USB 2 and likes a USB hub for
power. It has 2 USB connectors on the cable (one is power only)
and did run off a laptop, but a hub is always better for power.

Thanks for sharing this. I've been looking for something like this for a
while for backing up digital photos when on vacation.

If you have larger backup needs, I can recommend this:

http://www.westerndigital.com/en/products/Products.asp?Drive ID=270

Paid 409.00 - I�ve only had it week.

Usable for streaming on FW800.

Wow! 1 terabyte, FW800, RAID, and 400.00

Impressive. Let us know how that works out for you.
