Use an external to back up. when you are not actually backing up the computer unplug the drive and put it away.

Try www.ebuyer.com, under external hard drives

http://www.ebuyer.com/cat/Hard-Drives/subcat/External-Desktop-Hard-Drives

plenty of choices there - you can even get a 1tb (http://www.ebuyer.com/product/142563) for £66.

As 505090 says use external for backup, if you can store it in a different place, say at work or friends, then do so - it's no good if it and the original get lost in a fire or burgled.
