I realize this could go in the general computer forum, but since now I'm part of the Cult of Mac (r), I thought I'd ask here!
I currently have a Western Digital MyBook External HD, but it's the desktop model, and only 160gb, so it's not like I'll be able to take it on the road with me for backups. So I'm looking at some portable externals... I kind of have my eye on one of the 250gb models that Iomega makes. They have a silver one that would really go great with my MBP! - Does that make me sound like a woman saying a new pair of shoes really goes great with the new dress she bought last week?
Er... so anyway, I've read that most HDs today are basically all the same as far as reliability goes, so I'm just seeing what people like. They have both Firewire and USB models, so I'll probably go with the Firewire version.
