I am talking real hard drives.USB version are up to 500 Gig

I'm using a WD 1TB SATA drive in an Antec MX-1 external case.  The
case has
a cooling fan with under/over airflow and supports drives up to
1.5TB.  It
has USB 2.0 and eSata connections.  I'm able to move files between
Vista, XP
Pro, and Debian boxes.

Just about everyone has 1TB USB external drives

work?

I'll look into that one Andy. Thanks

I was going to make the same recommendation, Paul, but it looks like
Andy beat me to it!  So, I'll just add my two cents.

I also have a Western Digital 1 terabyte external hard drive. It runs
from the USB port.  I use it for daily full system backups (after the
initial backup, daily ones only take about 20-30 minutes to update only
the files that have changed) and storage of all my media files (videos,
photos, converted 8mm films, slides, etc.) and still have 700+GB free!

This is the one I have: http://tinyurl.com/ahod64
