I'm a teacher and I wanted a portable hard drive to store all the movie clips that I've collected over time to use in lessons - they were slowly clogging up my harddrive! I was looking for something relatively inexpensive; I'm only a poor teacher after all ;-) I ordered from Amazon and the drive arrived in less than two working days. There was (still is at time of writing) a 'buy 40Gb and we'll send you 60Gb' offer in place. Of course offers like that always say 'while stocks last' and I did wonder if they would send 40Gb anyway, but no, I got the 60Gb drive as promised. I plugged the drive into my laptop and it worked straight away with no fuss. It looks nice too, with a very attractive black rubber casing, and it comes with its own case so I'll be able to chuck it around in my school bag without (hopefully) too much wear and tear. I'm very pleased with it - if you're looking for a relatively cheap solution to your storage problems, this may very well be it.
