Are you looking at another hard drive for your laptop that slides into the drive bay (and replaces the existing drive), or are you looking at an external drive solution as a complementary drive?
I might have gotten confused on what you were looking for. If you were looking for an external drive, most external drives today are either usb or firewire (or both). Since firewire is less ubiquitous, I assumed you would be using usb to connect to the external drive. And having suffered last weekend through formatting and filling a 150GB drive through USB 1.0, I just wanted to warn you it hurts.
