'lo all...

I'm after a USB2 external drive, preferably between 30-100gb.
I've seen some that don't require a mains power supply, but get their juice
from the USB port and that would be ideal for me.

Anyone got any comments or recommendations on particular brands or models I
should aim for?

Cheers

A great way to blow your motherboard these are, you need to find out how
much power your USB ports are rated for, too much strain on them and your
board will blow.
