I also wan to get an external harddrive... Western digital I heard is known for quality harddrives -
If needed, i bring around my samsung 8gb flash ram drive.

i'm using maxtor onetouch III..great use if u are looking to use it as a back-up harddisk
pros,
- love the one-touch feature, juz pre-define the directories u want to save and press the button and the software u will automatically copy the directory over
- if u edit a certain file and save it on ur notebook, the next time u back-up ur system, the software will copy over the newer file w/o deleting the older one (based on the number of revision u want, the software will keep a certain back-dated versions of the file)
- no software installation needed for these back-up functions, everything's on the external harddrive, great if u work on multiple computers (e.g. work & home)
- you can set password in order to access the external drive, great if u got files which u dun want ur collegues or love ones to access
cons,
- expensive
- no leather case for protection
- a bit bulky compared to other usb harddisk -
got a maxtor 1 touch 2..
it gave me a feeling of being 'fragile' -
Western Digital is good... but it has some odd settings. It has always been odd.
