Re: External HDD 1TB+ Advice
You could always go with NAS (Network Attached Storage). Less of a chance of it crashing and you can get huge hard discs
Some are a bit pricey but I've seen drives that go up to 2.5 and 3 TB Take a look at these two links: Some info on NAS itself as well as a list of the top 5 drives of this type. Chart - Top 5 Network-Attached Storage Devices - PC World Network-attached storage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Re: External HDD 1TB+ Advice
I prefer to purchase Samsung hard drives.
They are more reliable than another hard drive manufacturer that also starts with a S, as far as my own personal preferences go...
