    I had to perform a secondary backup for the primary. So it is a backup for a backup. This external performed the backup exceptionally and I just had to buy another.

    These come with WD Red drives inside, when they are on sale they are an incredible deal, either for USB storage or cracking 'em and using them for your NAS storage needs.

    These drives are very fast--I'm getting about 150MBPS in transfers between 2 of them. They're also WD Red drives, so they should be quite reliable in most situations. :)
