External Hard Drive Recommendations?

I had a WD internal when I built my current computer and it died within 8 months. It's a shame because I was looking at one of the Passport models. They look really good, and in almost every way they would be perfect but...once bitten twice shy. I'm going to have a lot of expensive WAVs in it and I can't afford another WD screw up. I really need about a dozen of them to feel totally safe....

... but one will have to do to start with.

That Clickfree looks nice. Similar to one I was looking at by someone called Buffalo. I'd never heard of that manufacturer before. Put me off a bit.
