Western Digital My Book Premium Edition 500GB - USB 2.0/Firewire. PC or Mac. IMO, a great deal on backup storage! Comes with backup software. Link here.

warm deal. nice that it\'s a combo (USB+FW) drive, but $.54/GB is pretty high, even though it\'s large capacity and external. bought $30 enclosures for the 400GB drives i posted last week, and those worked out to $.40/GB with the enclosure..

Yeah, but from what I read about this one (spent 45+mins. learning about it before I bought it) it is a very solid product!!! And...it comes with, from what I read, AWESOME backup software. Had my run-ins with crappy backup software in the past and am looking forward to this one!! PLUS, the company paid for it , not me!!!!
