Ok, it's a new subject related to my previous question about backing up
to a bootable external. With the exception of the WD My Passport Slim,
what would you all recommend for an external HD? Needs are simple, just
backing up my HD before installation of Mavericks, probably backed up
with CCC, and then the occasional  back up. The drive needs to be
bootable and the capacity could be as low as 500GB. I'd also like to
keep the cost at $100 or lower. The primary laptop is a mid-2011
MacBook Air. Thanks.

Deja Moo: I've seen this bullshit before. Please respond to: scasse@invalid.net
replacing invalid with sonic.
