You can also leave an external drive connected semi permanently to a

socket and use that as a second drive.

That's OK for laptops that stay tethered to a desk, not so good for
laptops that actually get moved around ...


Well exactly. Lying in bed watching TV on me lappy with a bloody great
USB drive hanging off - the answer is of course NAS of some sort in that
case ;-)


You could always use a 128GB pen drive for about £20 and then
periodiacally transfer the data onto an ext drive.

I've already broke one USB socket through having summat stuck in it all
the time.
