Then if, heaven forbid, something bad happens and you lose your stuff on the local drive, you can restore it with the external hard drive.
(#1 picture, about the size of a deck of cards)
this is an 80GB external hard drive I have, I like this one, it is small. I am using it now.

check ebay of course!
(#2 picture) is a 500GB external Hard drive, I have not hooked it up yet. It looks way big.
(#3 picture) this is a memory stick, it holds 128KB to 2 GB depending which you buy. It is small enough to carry on your key chain.

Thanks for posting these with the sizes - I need to reformat (restore) my computer too - I'm having email problems
and can't open anything in PDF format and it glitches up on me
I have ALL my pics ...my card and label orders..... not to mention years of work on my computer so can't afford to do anything till I back it all up - I was going to do it to DVD but holy cow - It would have taken me 4 days
superstar - sorry you lost everything - That guy should have STRESSED that would happen when you did a full factory restore
