External harddrives are so 2009. Uploading files to the cloud is the way to go. I use dropbox, which syncs all my computers automatically and does version control.

I've never owned an ext HDD or looked at them, so before I drive down to the local MSY (parts list<http://www.msy.com.au/Parts/PARTS.pdf>) to get one, I'd like to check first if there are any recommendations or traps to be aware of. Friends have ext HDDs with USB connections, but I suppose they are outdated now as our new office desktop machines have SATA plugholes on the back ... is that right? Cheers, Greg
