[Helpdesk] Backups

[Lynn Roylance]

For G-5s I would choose Seagate/Maxtor  for internal.

LaCie 250 d2 for external for both Powerbooks and towers.

I just ordered another LaCie 250 d2 from http://www.buy.com/ for $170

Internal drives for Powerbooks I have no idea. But there are 4800,  
5400 and 7200 rpm drives available.
