Well, i think when I go home tomorrow I will bring my laptop back to campus. I have my DESKTOP, which I'm currently using, on campus. So is that enclosure just for protection? or can I just get through without having to purchase anything. Hopefully I can just ask my friend if I can borrow an external hard drive. I think have around 60 gb worth of stuff I need to back up so I wouldn't want to burn all that into DVD's. I'll have to check my zip drive though, I think thats 100gb. But we'll see when I get home tomorrow, I'm just trying to gather as much information as I can now so I know what i'm doing =P.

or if i really want I could back up through networking with my laptop?
