External HDD

Reccommend for me a very large capacity external hard drive, but at a reasonable price.
Ideally 1TB or so, and it shouldn't cost the Earth.

Not sure if my PC has a firewire port or not, so I guess it'll have to be USB2 connected.

Thanks.

usb2 is faster than firewire i believe... so good!

usb2 is 480Mbps, firewire is 400Mbps

they're so close it make little difference

Dabs has some very cheap Seagate models atm, i've got one Western Digitial and one Seagate, and the Seagate looks far better, and has better reviews.

I heard floppy disk drives are pretty good these days.
