I currently have a Maxtor 750GB OneTouch 4 for about a .. 8 months now, and i am impressed with it - but, its my only external backup device and also holds over 500GB of media!
Im paranoid - im not going to deny it, so im thinking of getting a another external HDD which i can backup into again. I need it to be reliable as well, something sturdy but will stand the test of time in the long-term.
NOTE - Yes, i know you cant say which brand lasts longest in some cases - but im asking for opinions here.
I was thinking of either a single 1TB drive or a 2TB drive configured to be 2x1TB RAID - so if one drive failed the other would remain safe and sound. Not only that, ill have my Maxtor OneTouch doing compressed backups of all data weekly.
What do you think guys? What are your experiances and what do you reccomend? D:
