bjarvisI ordered a 320 GB external USB hard drive from Buy.com two days ago ($110); it arrived yesterday. I'm now merrily backing up my primary Windows box, the one with 99% of my photos and 100% of my pr0n, about 60 GB worth. It'll take a few hours to wrap up.
My iMac required nearly 10 hours to back up all of the primary data partition. Alas, the older iMac has only USB 1.1 so its speed is a fraction of the newer USB 2.0. One more reason to upgrade my Mac some day soon.
Before the weekend is over, I'll make backups of both my personal laptop and the square dance calling laptop too. Hmm... I should also burn DVD backups of those machines...
