    Storage Recommendations?

    I have several (~around 3TB worth of data) on multiple internal HDDs that I need to recover. I would like to get an external HDD so that I can be somewhat mobile and take the drive with me when I travel. What do you guys suggest? Seagate? WD? any special model? Thanks for the help.

    For WD would you recommend the My Book Essential 3TB? I can always access the backup drive via remote access so that might work.

    +1 for Samsung.

    The F4EG drives rock. Cheap, but very reliable.
    You must [not] advance.
