Laptop & External drive & mouse & Ipod = USB Problem

[gerryroberts]

I have a Toshiba 6100 Laptop with only 2 USB Ports in the back. I am running a usb mouse and a usb Ipod, and I am in need to buy a external hardrive. Is there any portable external hard drive thats usb that I might be able to daisy chain to the computer. I thought I can use one usb port for the external drive and daisy chain the ipod to the external drive. Anybody knows who would make something like this?

Thanks

Why not make it easy on yourself and buy a port adapter that turns one usb into four? Like this one: USB hub
