Best external hard drive to store PC ripped music

Greetings!

I'm looking for a good External HD to store my music on.
To back it up with.
I use a PC and rip my music to mp3 320 kbps.

I got an Hitachi 500GB HD for Xmas, and it does store the files, but its not in a great user friendly way......

Does anyone have a HD that does a great job of backing up your music Library in a nice user friendly way?

Thanks for any and all comments.

Happy new year!

Drobo is much better, simpler, and easier than RAID, which I used to have.

check out Drobo's. They back themselves up, and have near infinite storage, with hot swapable SATA hard drives. Very cool, love mine.

I had a RAID system for several years. I used one of our IT guys to set it up, and it worked very well. But, it is not simple, it is not plug and play as the Drobo is.

Check out the DROBO website or any of the reviews on it. It is a one box solution to storage that includes self-back up. A drive fails, you replace it, don't lose any info.

Raid is much more involved.
