Finally looking to upgrade to a large (5-10 GB) backup device. I'm buying a USB hub anyway for a handheld hotsink cradle as my other two USB ports are being used for external Zip Drive and scanner... Any suggestions on a good backup USB interface storage solution?

Thx.

Either good ol CD-RW's or check out the 2.2GB USB Castlewood ORB drive. Each 2.2GB disk runs about $20.

Thx, RC and AuraEdge. I have a CDRW, but don't care to use it for daily back up use. I find tape drives are sooo convenient. I'll check out your recommendations. Thx.
