I would also recommend an external hard drive. Used it during deployments so I did not have to listen to the same songs over and over (Yes, it is possible to burn through 40 GB worth of songs). Was also good as a backup in case the SD card was damaged (Have used it for all types of MP3 players). While not a cheap investment (a little less than $1.00 / GB) , a decent one IMO as I was also able to keep the HD on my computer a little less cluttered. I had (still have) a great 160 GB Western Digital that I used, my only advice as to which to purchase would be to make sure that you get one that does not require a driver (WD and Firefly make some good ones for this purpose). Some are even actually powered solely off the USB.
In any case, it is just more memory / storage space available for you. In addition, you can usually burn assorted drivers (printers, ZIP drives, etc) to the external HD and key programs in case your main computer gives you the BSOD or ends up corrupted. Just my $0.02, hope it helps.
