My question is, has anybody got one? and how reliable are they? It only needs to be usb, so i can take it with me when i go on hol`s etc.

Any thoughts......................
I'd get a laptop hdd (about 40GB - 60GB) and use a USB caddy, these are excelent as they are 100% host powered so there is no hefty PSU to carry around with you so its extra portable.
I use 2 of these myself, 1x6GB USB1 & 1x40GB USB2. I also have a 120GB maxtor USB2 drive (full size drive) and thats fine too
