you can save to disk, but an external hard drive is much more convenient - bear in mind a DVD is 5GB & you are looking to backup 250 GB - that would be 50 DVD disks ...

a simple option (not the best, necessarily, but bear with me) would be go to Tesco, & buy a http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.206-4435.aspx

Use this to save the backup to - at worst Tesco will take it back & refund the cost no questions asked if returned within 30 days ...

NB 'Hard Drive' & 'Hard Disk' tend to be synonymous ...

I thought you said you had borrowed an external hard disk/drive to try?
