I'd go with a better known name like Seagate, Western Digital, or Maxtor and look around to see which one's the cheapest. You can check out newegg.com or frys.com...they always have good sales. If you're not looking for much extra space and only need say...an extra 8 or 12 gigs of space, I'd go with a usb pen drive because they're a little more portable than an external hdd.

Over the years in Best Bets Daily we've repeatedly preached the gospel of backing up your computer files—because sooner or later your hard drive will fail on you. Now you really don't have an excuse, because the all-new, redesigned, ultracompact Seagate FreeAgent Go drives make backing up incredibly easy and even sort of aesthetically rewarding, in an Apple-y sort of way.

AWESOME
I got the external hard drive last week its Seagate 500gb External Portable Usb 2.0 Hard Drive
I found this one is a straight forward device that does what it should - stores my data without any problems
