Would this be better than an external drive you build on your own? What seems to be different and if I built my own can you get software like this?

Why just carry your files with you? Along with up to 160 glorious gigabytes, FreeAgent Go software lets you carry lots of great programs and all your browser favorites and passwords without having to haul around your computer. The FreeAgent Go data mover can run more than 100 free and pay-to-use applications on any PC without installing or storing programs on the host computer. Carry your browser, favorites, passwords, IM client and contacts, email client, cookies, settings and files so whether youre using a computer at work, school, a business center, an Internet cafe, or a library, you have your desktop environment there when you need it. And not to worry, your FreeAgent Go data mover saves all of your private information on itself, not on the computer youre using. That means theres no trace of your last session to tempt the next person on a borrowed computer. It also provides strong file encryption to protect your content, and lets you sync your files from several PCs.

if I have external hard drive I would prefer to back up data but any hard drives are made to fail so i prefer to use DVD for back up.
