I'm not concerned with speed right now. I had a white macbook that the hard drive failed on, I replaced it with this macbook pro and wanted to make sure I have an external harddrive to backup my files to. I'm a college student and this is about as much as I am willing to spend on one right now.

Go for the USB2.0 then, but a firewire 800 drive won't really run you much more $$ if any at all.
