i really want an external hard drive to put all my data. every CD i have seems to break after five minutes especially with my evil son scratching them and playing frisbee.
i need one at least 250GB like this one hd. maybe use the company card....
the trouble with the external hard drive thing is that i can see myself loving having it, and keeping all my stuff there, and being able to plug it into other computers etc. but after a while i will get paranoid about backing up and need a second identical disk to copy everything on to. i will then need a program which compares the content of the two drives and just copies the changes for speed and i have not checked this out on linux yet (yes yes i know it would be easy on windows).
then again, who says my hard drive on my laptop might not fail anyway. i would still be up shit creek. actually what if the web server breaks down? that has all my cvs on it!! (note to self: buy new machine with raid disks)
we cannot let ourselves get worried about these things.
