Backup deals

We're often banging on about backup and how important it is to have copies of your most valuable data in several places, but where can you put it? This weekend Novatech is offerring limited stock deals on a number of external hard drives, which are just the ticket for a quick and convenient local backup. For example this 500GB Western Digital USB 2.0 external drive is just £77.88, but at the time of writing there are only 17 in stock, so grab them while you can. If you need more space there's the 750GB version that includes USB 2.0 and Firewire interfaces at £116.33, but there's only 11 of them. If huge is never big enough, there's also the massive 1.5TB version that doubles as network attached storage, so you can use it on any PC connected to your network. It costs £193.88 and there are 19 of them up for grabs. If you prefer carrying data around with you there's always the pocket/handbag sized pink USB powered passport drive offerring 250GB portable storage for £55.08. These are selling like hot cakes with only one left when we last checked!

If pastel colours are your thing, PC World now has Eee PCs in stock in a tasteful powder blue. They cost £249.99. They've also got the breathtakingly tiny iPod Shuffle available at just £32. Staying with things Apple, PC World also has a white 2.4GHz MacBook going for £829.00.
