USB backup disk
Just looking for a USB backup drive to use for total copies of a hard drive in case of failure.
The WD essentials looks quite good. Although I am a bit concerned about cooling in a hot summer, which we get around here. USB 2.0 should be fast enough to transfer the data in a resonable time.
My PC actually only supports USB 1.1 which is very slow. I can look over to my left and see the 4 way usb 2 card that I have been meaning to fit... maybe this weekend I'll take the computer cover off and slot in that PCI card!
