Actually, one more quick question...

As you know I am getting the 1TB hard drive, but currently I do have:

1 - 500 GB
4 - 160 GB

Those 5 drives are all Sata, and I would like to still use those drives as backup. But, I want to use them externally. What type of external exclosure do I want?

I heard that using a external drive over USB 2.0 is bad. So what is the best connection type, and what connection does this new computer need to have for that?
