I have it on an external 300GB disk. And my friend Zyriax has the 1:1 backup of it
so nothing can happen, only if our disks will crash both at the same time.

Stranger things have happened!
But that is as safe as any backup method I can think of these days. Well that is until Blu-Ray writers come down in price, then you can back the whole HD up to 6 Blu-Ray discs.

Sweet, what is the biggest you can get? Are there 500 GB externals?

Yep, there are 500, 750 and even 1000GB external disks available now. The 1000GB are only firewire and are still a bit expensive, but f.ex. the WD 500GB one costs "only" 100£.

You can even get 2TB (2000GB) external drives.

Actually that isn't true any more. You can get a 1000GB Freecom USB2 external drive, and Lacie do 2000GB triple interface drives that have USB, Firewire and SATA.
And actually there is quite a bargain at the moment. The Lacie 1000GB Big Disk External USB2 HD is now only £209 + VAT, and the Lacie 600GB version is only £132.60 + VAT.
