I have two of these guys. They seem to go for $80 new. They are a year and a half old. They are not the tiny Western Digital Passport which seem to go for $100 to $120 new. So I am letting them go for $40 each.

I have used them for the past year and a half attached to a Linux server using bacula to do backups. I have two so one of them can be off-site. I do a full backup, rotate drives, then do incrementals, swapping the drives once a month. USB2 external drives work great for this kind of backup. MUCH faster than any tape you are likely to be able to afford. Perfect for home or small office. Since they are used I am letting them go for half the price of new. I have the original boxes they came in (which is how I transport and store them when off-site) but I don't have any documentation or CD's they may have come with. That stuff is useless anyway since all you have to do is plug it in and it's standard USB mass storage.

I will have them at the meeting tonight or if you can't make and they don't go at the meeting drop me an email and we can meet up somewhere.
