David, I have two Western Digital 120GB USB external drives for my laptop and have had no problems with either. I got this model as it requires no external power supply and draws its supply from the USB port. As far as I know they are all simply called removeable or external hard drives! Hth, Mark Threadgold The probability of being watched is directly proportional to the stupidity of your act... -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of David W Wood Sent: 13 August 2008 13:36 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] backup hard drive name Hi All: Please forgive this off-topic question, but I am sure that someone hcn help? I want to buy a backup drive, not a biggie as I already have, but the type which is a lap top hard drive in a case, which plugs into either a single or two USB ports. What are they called? I HAVE HEARD THEM DESCRIBED AS SHIRT POCKET DRIVES - THIS HASN'T HELPED ME THOUGH! I can then buy one on line!
