The two companies competing for your dollars here are Iomega and Syquest. You can buy an external or internal version of the drive, but either way you do need to open your PC and add a special board. You now have a new drive letter available, and can copy and load files to and from it just like any other disk drive. Syquest's drive is faster. Iomega's drive is more convenient.
Prices are comparable.
