Backup Unit
Same on confidence here. I collaborate with an IT co. in Italy and we call these "Backup units"- which is not only for operating system purposes but has a recovery data base of all files.

rescue support
A you can see from my confidence level I am not 100% sure - but I have come accros documents where the term external rescue support has been used.

backup and restore facility/function
A "backup & restore" facility or function is very common on modern PCs and external hard drives would offer the same facility, acting as an external backup.

A Google search on external +"backup and restore" results in lots of sites that seem relevant, e.g it could just be an external backup and restore system, generally, rather than naming the specific device.

backup
I would just call this backup but with the adjective "external" as in "external backup" which means just any thing outside the computer which can hold copies of the things you need. I've been battling with IBM's "rescue and recovery" software to restore my number one computer to to working condition for over two weeks now.

Vincent Lemma
: Only "backup" might suffice but it ca be exchanged with an emergency power backup

Vincent in the context you wouldn't restore a disk image from a power supply. Also these are generally called UPS's.
