Bestbuy has the SEAGATE EXTERNAL 750 gb HDD on sale for $379.00. Lowest price I could find. Seems HOT.

DON'T BUY IT
WAS ALREADY OFFERED AT $299 AT OUTPOST F/S NO REBATE.
AND WAS OFFERED COMPUSA FOR $279 WITH A REBATE.
NOT A HOT DEAL, IMHO.

You should worry about buying a new keyboard first, your caps lock key seems broke.
The drive that does *NOT* fail first, by definition, is the backup???
Thanks for the insite, humor and wisdom.".... RAID is not a backup...."
If the data is deemed to be that important, then justifying the additional expense for Raid 5 or other,(or more redundant) backup solution should be a non-issue IMO.Originally posted by: nekote

After all is said and done, a mirror drive the most practical / cost effective method to backup?
Then whata' ya' do, when that duplicate dies before getting a new second drive?
Your life's work / archive wiped out?

Its still a single drive which means less power. awesome for a movie or music drive... or even an desktop "imaging" drive
