[TriLUG] Best attached storage

[Roger Broseus via TriLUG]

I used a SanDisk low profile thumb drive as a backup device for photos during a trip this summer. Convenient and so small that I just left it plugged in all the time. (No loss in the laundry. These things are rest to lose, being so small.) Cheaper by the gigabyte - $11 for 33 GB at Amazon.
