I have a large collection of photos and videos which I have on an external HDD, but its a mechanical device that is prone to wear and quite delicate to handle, so I have been looking at USB flash drive but my original thought was it would never hold my collection. I use 33GB of a 1TB HDD, and there are 64GB USB available for around 100Euro. Some reviews of these show youtube clips of them being dropped, driven over, washed etc and survive. Its not a mechanical device so is that much sturdier than a HDD.
i think 1TB is too much. Why not just 10-20gb, all of your pictures would surely fit in that kind of memory.
or you will be using 1TB if you really have TONS and TONS of pictures.

We got [broken link removed] 1TB in DID recently for €67.99 - would it do the same job?
Edit: Iomega 1TB which I think is the same one from Pixmania quoted above.
Went into DID today and it has a power adapter so it must be a portable one that I'm looking for.
Harvey Norman are advertising a 2TB desktop hard drive in their Back to School & College newspaper for €79.00 at the moment. Doesn't seem to show up on their website though.
Take a look on amazon at a "WD My Passport" hdd...USB 3.0 and 1tb will be close to €80
Do you keep them in two different physical locations, to protect against total loss due to theft, fire or flood?If one should fail, then I'd buy another and get back to 2 copies on hard drives.
And also keep really important photos on DVDs too. Can never be too sure.
