How long to back up 120 GB of data?
How is the backup drive connedted to the computer? If it is connected by USB, the rectangular plug, then it might take an hour or more. If it is connected by a SATA plug, which looks like a USB, except it is shaped slightly less like a rectangle, it would take significantly shorter time, though I don't know how much shorter, since there is SATA 6 and SATA 3, which both affect the required time. 120 Gb is a lot to back up, so don't expect it to go quickly.
