very good idea, i like it :)

in fact if i had a spare HD i'd probably also get one, but i'm not planning on upgrading my HD's for a LONG time.

i would probably rather use it with a 20gb 5400 rpm drive or similar. imho 7200 would be a bit wasted since its only really going to be used for portable storage....

The only problem is that U'll have to have drivers for usb 2.0 wont ya, I heard that M$ haven't got support for it or something like that

lol oops, i thought your drives were both 7200rpm... anyway sydog, no i dont think that is a problem since the review said that MS included USB2.0 drivers in the latest XP patches. i wouldn't know about 2k tho, but i assume there would be drivers around.

I wouldn't mind having one of them. It's a very good idea.

hmmm, pity the colleges PCs don't have USB2.0
