[QUOTE="jdeg, post: 105168, member: 1"] I have several drives in my computer that I built myself. One of the drives is 1.4tb and use it to backup files. This was actually the replacement for another drive which failed 10 months ago or so. I lost about half of my backup data and some larger movie files. I finally broke down and bought an external backup drives since they're only getting cheaper and faster. I did some research before I purchased and landed on the Western Digital Passport 1tb: [url=http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006Y5UV4A/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=celphofor0d-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B006Y5UV4A]Amazon.com: WD My Passport 1TB Portable External Hard Drive Storage USB 3.0 Black: Computers & Accessories[/url] It's cheap, has plenty of space, and comes with some very nice features. The software to back things up is very easy to use. You can also easily set a password for the drive. If you need more than 1tb the same model goes up to 2tb - which would totally be worth it for $37 extra. If you don't already store your original image files in multiple places, this is definitely an easy way to start. [/QUOTE]
