I’ve been using Western Digital external USB drives for a while now with no problems. As a matter of fact, just today I purchased a external 320GB Western Digital drive at Circuit City for a mere $89 (on sale). It’s reasonably fast, as far as USB drives go. Setting it up was a no-brainer. I can’t cite precise benchmarks, but I copied about 60GB of large files from my internal hard drive to the external in about 40 minutes. I also have a 120GB WD external USB that is at least two years old, and I’ve never had a single problem with it. Other brands (Seagate, Maxtor) may be just as good; I just can’t vouch for them personally.
