I like to religiously back up my home directory on my Rev B, but I prefer not to leave the backup (usually a small external hard drive, sometimes a flash disk) permanently attached, lest it
A) gets fried by the same lightning strike that fries my iMac, or
B) gets stolen along with my iMac
I'm worried that daily connect/disconnect cycles are going to wear out the ports and damage them. It requires substantial force to unplug them; they "pop" out rather than smoothly disconnecting using very low force.
