I would like to buy an external harddrive for my G4 iBook that will boot with Tiger installed on the external HD. Is that possible? If so, any suggestions which HD to buy? I'd like at least 160GB on the external HD. My internal 60GB HD is nearly full in just one year of use.

Any FireWire hard drive will do (USB will not).

Acomdata works great. Their new E5 case design is very sleek looking too!
Did Schroedinger's cat think outside the box?
