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!

I'm not sure what your question is. Hard drives by themselves don't have a user interface independent of the directory structure of the operating system you're using or the music server application.

Are you asking what application you should use to manage your music?

Software designed to back up and restore the files on your hard drive is a different thing from software designed to organize your music collection, and both are independent of the brand of hard drive you use.

If what you're interested in is having easy access to your music files then software like iTunes or J.River would let you manage those files easily.
