A backup a day keeps DR away.

Use the Seagate drives and always have a second drive to copy things onto once a month or weakly for backup. You should be fine for life.

Like the enclosure, I'll make a note of that...

ShaneWard - Did you open up both of my enclosure links ? Because I tried the first one and it didn't work I tried the second one and it did.

Anyways.. the first enclosure was called the IcyDock ICYBento MB559U3S-1SB. The second one is called the IcyDock BLIZZARD MB080U3S-1SB.

I decided that I will go with a 2.5" inch hard drive and with another enclosure: http://www.raidsonic.de/en/products/ext ... ectID=8818 If you can't open up this link it is called the Icy Box IB-228U3Eb

Hello,

if you would like to buy WD, buy black series.
Hitachi is also a good choice

But, no matter which disk you buy, you need to regulary backup your data
