Anybody paranoid they're going to lose their information, so they double up on hard drives? But not to have an insane amount of space, solely to have TWO copies of everything so if one goes out you have a backup...
I have a 200 gig drive and thought about getting another one of similar size due to this. Perhaps an external one though, because it would be ideal to backup my girlfriend's college papers on there too (which doesn't take up much room) and it's convenience of being able to disconnect and connect it into a laptop would be ideal.
BTW - Do you need the OS installed on a slave drive or a USB external drive? Or does it just act like a 'big' USB jumpdrive?
