Hello. I just ordered my new MBP and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on an external harddrive that works good? What about the Seagate Freagent Go 250GB drive here:

Is that good? There aren't any reviews on the site. It has FireWire 400/800 or USB 2.0.

Thanks!

If you're looking at the Seagate ones, get the FreeAgent Mac drive. It has FW800, and is probably bus powered, so no need for an external power supply. But I think I'll also echo the above poster's suggestion of building your own. Now I need to order one of those enclosures.
