Here is a link for a USB external hard drive but you should consider a unit with the capability of both USB and Firewire to allow you to boot from the drive. This assumes a Mac computer--if you have a Microsoft unit just get the USB drive. This dealer has that version also. If you look they also have a video on this process. Good luck.
