External Hard Drives

[athene]

Ok Internets, I have a question for you.

For my capstone, I need to buy an external hard drive for my boss. The hard drive is going to be holding lots of high quality scanned images and possibly some video and audio files.

I'm thinking at least a 750GB if not at 1TB drive. USB connection or Firewire A connection a must (both would be better).

So, oh internets, what hard drive should I buy? Or at least what company should I go with/should avoid?

Thanks!

We had a Maxtor that I dropped and it stopped working. So I'm not too happy with Maxtor, but I was an idiot for dropping a hard drive on the laminate floor. Lesson learned, external hard drives aren't portable. Strap it to a desk somewhere.
