"I've got it! We'll call it the Seagate External Hard Drive!"

Seagate's released their new backup/external drive series called, well, we won't say it a second time, and they've got a review over on EverythingUSB.  They run up to 200GB in size and have USB 2.0 and Firewire (400 only though,
not the faster Firewire 800) and use Barracudas with 8MB cache, so they're pretty quick.  The backup software leaves a bit to be desired with no compression options, but it does at least offer incremental updating. We think the best part is that they were stupid enough to use a PS/2 style port for the power input, so you could possibly plug your drive's power adapter into your keyboard or mouse PS/2 ports, and fry your computer. But if you're careless enough to do that, you're probably not reading this site anyway.
