Back to the topic at hand before this conversation took a left turn... NewEgg has an iomega Select 2TB USB 2.0 Black External Hard Drive 34974 for $89.99 + free shipping if you use the code EMCZZYX42, dimensions are 7.68" x 4.54" x 1.48". Unfortunately the case *does* contain a full 3.5" desktop hard drive, not a notebook hard drive as the OP requested, but hey.. it's 2 Tb and it's under $100. :-)

Its a dual-drive portable unit with hardware RAID, aaand a handle! It supports USB 2.0 and eSATA. I have two 1.5 TB drives running RAID-1 in mine. It fits in a briefcase. Its awesome. I just got my two 1.4 TB drives from Fry's for ~$70 each. They are slower RPM, but for external storage, you dont notice. -- ME2 On Tue, Nov 9, 2010 at 9:46 AM, Jon Harris <jk.har...@gmail.com> wrote: Sorry for the cross post but it has been a long time since I was in the market to get a personal USB drive. Anyone want to offer up a recommendation, please? Size would be either 1 or 1.5 TB preferred without needing an extra power cable to run it but I would find it acceptable for it to use two USB cables. Small enough to fit in a briefcase or pocket would be best. I have several older systems here at home that need to be wiped and rebuilt and would like to back them up without needing to push all the files through a wireless network.
