External Hard Disk Drive from Maxtor: 100GB OneTouch II - Page 2

Today size of HDD = status of PC guru

More Guru = more large size HDD sales

Stripping down all my 30 years of work into text format = > 10Mb of data.

How about a couple of HDD crashes will make most people rethink their collection of "data"

I have heard of that nightmare.

Sudden HDD death!

Has never happened to me. I hope it never does.

Happened to someone I know. He lost 200GB of Mp3, almost went

What can we do to protect ourselvers oh great, old and wise Guru?

Nah, too immobile for my taste.

Do you think I got 250GB+ MP3 collection by telling people to come over to my house to upload their data?

Can you (at least theoretically) achieve RAID 1 with say external SATA disks?
