They cost around a $100 (about 50 cents/gigabyte of storage), hold tons of photos and they are fast. I now have multiple copies of our photos and I am a happy guy. Who'd a thunk it that redundancy is so comforting? Several professional photographers, I know go this route (with much bigger drives, Terabyte size) and further back up their images "in the cloud" by paying for online storage space that also has multiple back-up servers...
