Q. I was thinking of getting an SSD to upgrade from my USB Flash Drive. I want to use it to basically put movies, projects, and personal files on there. I want to be able to carry it around, sort of like a portable USB flash drive.
However, when I checked up on NewEgg to look at the pricing, I came across two categories. External SSD and Internal SSD. There were a lot of products/ratings for internal SSDs, however not barely any for external SSD.
What is the big difference between external and internal SSD. Initially, I thought internal was for putting into the computer, while external would be the thing im looking for. Can internal SSD be used in the way im looking for as well? I'm rather curious why there are such a limited number of external SSD and seemingly not many buyers.

Answer
Your right. Internal hard drives typically use SATA connections (you've probably never seen one) and external hard drives use USB. External SSDs are uncommon because its sort of a weird spot in the market. Usually, people either use a flash drive with flash memory or a regular external hard drive. I check Neweggs daily deals every day and today they have a shockproof and waterproof external hard drive for a pretty good price. I assume you know the difference between a standard hard drive and a solid state hard drive, and the only advantage to SSDs are that they can be smashed and still have info on them. This shockproof regular external HD suits your needs if that was the reason for wanting a SSD. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822211021&cm_sp=DailyDeal-_-22-211-021-_-Product

Which of these 3 portable hard drives is best?
Q. I need to get a new portable hard drive and I found these all similarly priced. They all have similar ratings and reviews so I need an opinion on which is best. I need one that can run fast and reliably and is very easy to use, like plug and play.
