Also, cost and convenience are a factor. I'd like something that I setup once and the backups are done on a regular basis automatically. I don't want to sit at my PC burning disks if I don't have to.
Also, I'd like to say "computer geek" is a term of endearment.

With my grandson at three, I am now up to 40gb in photos alone, plus add videos.
For ease, the drive you describe works awesome.
With my Mac, when I connect it, it backs up latest changes automatically.
You can also go with Apple's time capsule and not only an awesome router but also an automatic back up hard drive.
