Planning getting one about 160GB to make room for more music etc.

Can anyone recommend something reliable? I'd hate to lose some diry pics and not be able to find any on the internet ever again.

If you're going for something of that size, my reccomendation to will be a SATA 2.5" Hard drive and buy a SATA 2.5" caddy for it. Works out cheaper, and will probably be a lot more reliable in the grand scheme of things than a Retail external drive. Also if you opt for a 2.5" drive most of them power from USB these days rather than requiring a separate power cord connected to mains.

Cheers guys.
