Default Back up solution


I need a back up solution for my laptop. My laptop hard disk is 320GB so i will need a minimum 320GB capacity solution.
I don't have a budget for fancy external drives, is there any solution by which i can use cheap external hard disk and connect it with e-sata port of my laptop. All this at lowest possible budget.

You can buy an external casing with esata port, and then you can insert any regular 3.5" desktop HDD.

But keep in mind about the current HDD price, you should better get a portable one

@ OP - get a portable external HDD - internal HDDs are more pricier than extrenal portable HDDs

For eg .

250GB Desktop HDD - ~3.7k
320GB Laptop HDD - ~4.6k
500GB External Portable HDD ~ 3.7k and you can get 320GB at ~3.2k - make your choice
