1) I just need to back up the pictures/videos (every once in awhile) of my kid and throw the drive in a firesafe box which I will also be purchasing. In other words, I don't need it to be running and backing up everything I do.

2) Price range is $100 - $200

3) Obviously, long term durability

4) 250 - 500 GB is a good start.

I appreciate any advice.
I can't give you any on HDs, but I must admit I'm too scared to keep my photos JUST on my external HDD. I'm too paranoid about them going.

I have to put them on HDD and also back em up on DVD
