Looking into getting a *portable* hard drive, any suggestions on brands?

Anonymos

I have been searching for what type of *portable* hard drive I want (you know, one that runs on USB power only). I have have good experiences with WD Passport before. Some things I am looking for in one is:

-640-750GB (750 is preferred, I have seen them before)

-under $200(most important one)

-7000 RPM (not sure if they have portable ones in that RPM class, but it would be nice, though not required)


Would you recommend getting one that is built for ruggedness or just a standard one like the WD passport Elite? I would move around a fair bit with it, and I tend to be clumsy :/. How much is the price difference between the two?

Answer
Maxtor external hard drive

Great value and its cheaper the bigger you get

You can purchase a 1TB (930GB) HDD for £80.. thats $128 in dollars :)

Hope this helpes

Is there a Seagate or Maxtor portable hard drive that's 7200 rpm?

I'm just looking at these 2 brands since they're the best and they have 5 year warranties...

Answer
YES, do a search and find nearest dealer and give them a ring.
