[Gllug] Backup drive for CentOS 5 remote setup

[t.clarke]

Is the 'need a short lead' problem with the USB drive due to the fact it is
powered from the USB lead ?

Personally I always go for USB drives that are externally powered; I know this
means an extra plug and power cable, but the USB-powered ones must surely draw
a fair bit of juice from the lead which may well limit what else you can connect
to the USB hub at the same time (?)
