I have that same drive and I really enjoy just copying files rather than
having to deal with tar or cpio, etc. Unfortunately, my drive died on day.
It just wouldn't spin. Maxtor replaced it, but my backups were gone.
I'm going to get another drive. Would it be best to backup one to the other
or just alternate backups to two different external drives?
