Best Backup HDD

[sebmills25]

I am looking for a hard drive to backup my computer. If possible, backup my software also.

The most ideal would be to press a button and the hard drive backs up changes made to my computer. Something like this:

What do you guys think?

MY general recommendations
1) Don't by an external WD (they fail far more often then external drives i see)
2) ONLY buy an external drive that comes with its own AC adapter (don't rely on a drive to draw sufficient power all the time from USB port (e.g. if USB drive)
3) Invest in Ghost Imaging Software. Best $50 you'll spend in protecting your files/folders and endless/grief and time if something fails
=> You really want something can do far more then just simple file/folder backup
=> Personally, i use Acronis True Image Home
