Recovery using Portable HDD

[Param]

I have Vista Home Premium in my T61, Is there any possibility to
create make recovery details stored in my portable HDD (Western
Digital MyPassport)
so that i can avoid using DVD's or CDs to create recovery disk

Thanks

Possibly, but how would that help if the external hard drive gets damaged. Besides, You will still need to make a cd to boot from unless you are going to use the whole external hard drive for recovery only.
CD/DVD's are cheap. Just spend 5 bucks to make the set and be done with it.

I have been doing exactly that lately.
