I need a nice, small and reliable hard drive that i can use to transfer video files from my high school film class to home so I can edit them. I don't know how many gbs I need either. I'd like it to be light and to fit in the average backpack. I have USB 2.0 and firewire, Any suggestions?
One movie file is about 40 GB, but I'd also be storing the raw footage

wait for a usb flash drive to come on sale. try to get an 8GB. you might be able to save some money instead of getting an external hard drive

How big of a portable hard drive do I need to backup my laptop's 250G hard drive?

basically my whole life is on this computer, so if something happens to the hard drive I want to be able to have everything saved.

Thanks for any help!

Well, external hard drives are so cheap nowadays that you could just get a 250GB+ hard drive and back up everything 1:1. I think Best Buy has a sale of 500GB external drives this week.
