buy or get ( freeware ) a encryption program that specializes in that task a
few examples would be

Cryptainer ( Free Version Available ) By Cypherix
TrueCrypt ( Freeware ) By The TrueCrypt Foundation
ScramDisk ( Shareware ) By SecureStar
E4M ( Shareware ) By SecureStar
DriveCrypt ( Shareware ) By SecureStar
ect...

theres all kinds of software that does this go ahead and use a search engine
to find a few using a few words that are parts of a program you wan't ( ex:
free / encryption / AES / Blowfish / Fast / Easy / Drive ) and that will
help you out real fast just be sure you download from a ligitamate souce
thats virus and malware/spy-ware free

Best Of Luck,

I suggest a device with this capability built-in.

Hello,
I just got an external/travel drive and now I'm looking for the same as you.

Did you end up getting software for it, and if you did... are you happy with
it? Would appreciate knowing the programs you may have tried.

Thanks,
M

Use Truecrypt. It's great, and it's free.
