But for me using an external HDD is unthinkable because I lost all my files once when my external HDD was damaged. That's when I started using Safecopy online backup, www.safecopybackup.com, to backup my files. With Safecopy I can backup all my files from both my Mac and Pc with just only one account. I can also backup my USB drives and share files as well. I'm very happy with and it's worth checking it. Nice article!!

My laptop's been playing up the past week (in fact it may crash any second now) and I have JUST finished doing a system restore in the hope that it will fix the problem (whatever it is), and I really need to backup my important files. The laptop's HD is only 80GB so it shouldn't cost too much, but I, like most people, rarely do backups (Ironically I have just finished a consultancy contract with a law firm instilling into them the importance of regular backups). Will I ever learn. Hey it hasn't crashed ye......... Thanks for the lowdown on this HD (however I may get a different one if the previous commenter is to be believed).

I have found it to be "flakey" at best. It will stop working with no explanation. Dragging it to trash and then unplugging it and re-plugging it in is necessary to get it operational at that point. I really wish I had not spent my money on this hard drive. I have bought the same unit, and I would urge extreme caution. I have found it to be “flakey” at best.
