Recommned bus powered travel drive

I need to pick up a little USB/FW bus powered drive. Any recommends? Just the odd times when you need to move a handful of GB from studio to studio.

I was thinking the Seagate line...

I'm a big fan of my g-tech mini's.

Ditto on the G-Minis. BTW, stay away from Seagate external drives. I have one that is not too stable.

I like this as you can swap drives and give a mulitutde of input options for optimal speed depending on your compooper.

Put the 2.5" drive of your choice into a bus powered case like these:

This has been my all time favorite portable drive for more than 5 years. That's a long time loving one storage product!
