I am looking for a 1 to 1.5TB external hard drive to backup my system
on. I do not want it to run backups automatically. What is a good one?



I won't recommend any particular brand of drive, but let me point out
that an external drive is nothing but an internal drive installed in
an external USB case. You also have the choice of buying a regular
internal drive and an external USB case (about $20 US) and installing
it in the case yourself. Even if you are all thumbs you will find that
installation to be extremely easy and taking you no more than five
minutes or so.

Anything that includes a 3 to 5 year warranty, opting for 5 year
warranty devices before 3 year ones. Seagate comes to mind.
