But right now, with the external drive, it's not really much of a concern for me. That means you’d have a friend, but alas, I’d be out of luck.

I found it interesting that the most information you can access off your main computer, from which files are backed up onto the drive, is 500MB, even though the new drive itself can be upwards of a terabyte. You can't transfer video or audio files through it either; just more information for you. Still, if offers an interesting alternative to carrying around an external hard drive everywhere. And it's not all that expensive either. Something to definitely think about. That’s pretty nice, Jeremy.

Apparently it functions like all of the other MyBook external drives but adds the functionality of a freestanding server, allowing access to the data anywhere in the world. I thought it sounded like a slick concept, so I figured I'd share. <abbr><em>Jeremy´s last blog post..<a href="http://www.listentomebitch.com/clapping-for-movies-the-ultimate-in-theatrical-stupidity/">Clapping For Movies - The Ultimate in Theatrical Stupidity</a></abbr></em> I was talking to a friend the other day, and he mentioned picking up a WD MyBook World drive.

One is a 300 GB drive, the other is a 100GB drive. I also have 3 other hard drives from other computers laying around if I need them. I keep the 300 GB attached to my computer at all times, and the other one is my traveling drive, in case I need to work on someone else's computer. Not hardly.
