o none of my files are even in my computer. The only files that I hold in my computer are program files. Keeping your files stored on the external hard drive also helps aid in the speed of your computer. If you are like me and have a ton of files and your computer is running a bit slow then perhaps I have seen many people in my lifetime losing a ton of files due to hard drive failure including myself. What this means to the user is headaches, stress and losing days of crucial work that was saved or perhaps years of important files lost. Who wants that, right?

In the old days we had to deal with floppy disks and zip disks that barely scratched the surface of saving all that needed to be saved and we would have a pile of disks everywhere. Does this sound all too familiar?

These days we now have external hard drives. I will honestly say this is the best thing technology could have ever brought to us for saving files! What is an external hard drive you ask? It is a device that plugs into the USB port of your computer from either the front or back and it ranges from the size of a pack of cigarettes to a tissue box. You can store any type of files you own and basically you never need o worry about loss again. The filing system that you use is exactly the same system your present computer uses. You can save, drag and drop files as well as transfer files from your external hard drive into another computer.

I personally work completely off of my external hard drive so none of my files are even in my computer. The only files that I hold in my computer are program files.

There are two different types of external hard drives. There is the portable type which is relatively small and very user friendly because you can take them anywhere and plug them into a computer without extra wiring hanging all over the place.

Then there is the larger external hard drive that is more stationary. For the most part if you have your computer located in an inconvenient area it is a big hassle to unplug everything to transport to another area of your home or office.

You can get them anywhere and I have tried 4 different companies and ended up with the Western Digital. It is small, portable and extremely user friendly. There is no software to install because hey are plug and use. You can get them at Best Buy, Staples or any place that sells computers or offices supplies. They range from $80.00 on up. For the average user an 80 GB is just fine but if you are a graphics artist or own a large amount of files I would recommend the 120 GB or even the 160 GB.

Imagine this, by this time next year they are talking about presenting the world to a new wave of saving files. The device will be
