Why not get another internal drive? You can probably pick one up for about $50.

Hey D - I was looking into getting an external HD. I have 5 Computers located in three different places I need to back up, I thought I'd get like a 200 plus Gig Ext HD and roam the country side collecting back up data.

What say you? ;)
