Looking for a great deal on a portable storage/backup solution? (1 Viewer)

I never shop at Wal-Mart, but I was looking for a new portable hard disk and came across this kickass deal. Both FW800 and USB 2.0, it comes with a FireWire 800 dock and is a very respectable 320GB. Ordered mine two days ago and it was delivered today. It's quiet and has excellent write speeds. Comes with just about any cable you will need.

That's decent pricing. The sacrifice for the price & connectivity is that it's 5400 RPM instead of 7200 RPM.

I bought the 1.5 TB seagate USB (no firewire) on saleat BestBuy for $150, which is a sweet-spot for $/GB.

Everyone should have some external drive for TimeMachine.
