I back up everything on my hard drive that I don't want to lose onto an external drive (or two), that way if I have to change computers I can just plug my external into a laptop or a different PC.
When my computer died the last time, I was using an old 15 gig laptop with a 500gig external plugged into it and everything worked just fine til I could afford to replace my computer.
Thanks for the information. Sounds exactly like what I need, I had no idea these devices existed.
