Uk external hard drive to use with LE

[Richlegate]

Hi guys,

I live in England and am stuggling to run pro tools LE8 (with mbox 2) on my mac mini. If anyone has info regarding the reason id need an external hard drive and a good model to buy in the Uk please do let me know,

I've read the essential is that it is firewire 400/800 NOT usb 2.0 and runs at 7200rpm and the drive is to save audio, sessions etc on to speed up use,

any advice much appreciated,
very sorry if this is an over asked question! :)

I have an OWC "On the Go" 320 Gig, 7200 RPM, Triple interface.
I use this on my small PT 8 rig.
It works great.
