Previous posts say that people are successfully using external USB hard drives. Who of you has a recommendation/review of what they've been using, how they like it, what they don't like about it, what it has or lacks or what additional features would be desirable (e.g., a blinky read/write LED). Yeah, price is a consideration, but I've found again and again that it's a mistake to sacrifice quality; the little bit of cash saved is more than swamped by the time and trouble second-rate equipment lays on me. I plan on using this, among other uses, to back up my laptop and other machines, so longevity is definitely an issue. I'm thinking I'd want a capacity of at least 100Gb. Comments, recommendations, analyses, and opinions cordially invited. -- "This world ain't big enough for the both of us," said the big noema to the little noema.
