OT: External hard drive opinions?

There seem to be a lot of tech minded people on this site. Anyone have an opinion on external hard drives? I have an aging Gateway laptop with a nearly full 10 gig hard drive. It will be replaced eventually, but I would like to address storage concerns in the meantime. My thinking is that the external hard drive is good because a) it allows storage space for music, pics, video, etc., b) gets the aformentioned items off of my machine's hard drive, and c) is safe from computer crashes or failures. Any recommended drives?
TIA,
DMC 1997 900 SET w/75k
