[QUOTE="wicker_man, post: 205739, member: 16283"] I have one of these USB2/firewire 3.5" caddys: [url]http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/ProductInfo.asp?WebProductID=127643[/url] It is excellent, slient fanless design and cool blue LEDs. You just put any 3.5" IDE hard drive into it. I would suggest buying 2 of them, and putting a hard drive in each such as a Seagate 500GB: [url]http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/ProductInfo.asp?WebProductID=329662[/url] The caddy has 2 firewire ports, so you can daisy-chain 2 together. I think you will need to format as FAT32 if you want to share with your windows PC. [/QUOTE]
