Hello

I certainly would recommend the Western Digital Drives, but if your backups are around 150GB ... to be on the safe side, if you can afford it, get 2x 200GB drives and backup the data twice ... depends on how critical the data is.

Personally, I've got a 1TB drive from Western Digital and it rocks, going to get another one soon!

you can never have too much storage. Go for as much as you can afford, then you have the space if you need it, eg you suddenly need to make an emergency back up of another PC, that has truck loads of media on it

BUT Do remember that if a LARGE disk drive dies you lose a LARGE amount of data.
