They may be making USB versions now, but iPod's are normally firewire. Having used one, they make excellent portable hard drives, and you can even boot mac s off them. IF you wanted a portable hard drive that was rugged enough to carry with you everywhere (unlike most external HD"s) the iPod would be perfect and considering the price of normal full size external firewire drives, the price isn't bad.

The new iPods are USB 2.0 also. I believe you have to use the iPod dock to be able to use this feature.
