This is great for anyone with an extra 2.5" hard drive lying around, or for upgrading your current hard drive. Converts standard 2.5" drives into external storage devices. Backup software included for disaster recovery. $39.99 with $10 mail in rebate and $7 shipping for total of $36.99.

For those willing to dig up the software themselves, you can save $20...go down to TigerDirect/CompUSA and for $16 after tax buy a 2 1/2" SATA to USB enclusure like I did today. Did not include software, but I'd be willing to bet a quick trip to Download.com will solve that problem.
(The one I got was only SATA, not SATA/IDE, but 2 1/2" IDE drives are a rarity nowadays)
