Big and bulky, these drives are for home use only.

A fast, portable and very expensive external HD.

The G-Technology G-Drive Mobile SSD is a very powerful, high-end device that gets the job done fast. It might be too pricey for most wallets, though, as you can rewad in our full G-Technology G-Drive Mobile SSD review.

Very powerful, but very pricey, too.

A slow but steady external HD.

Western Digital Elements is a great option if you want lots of storage on the cheap, and can live with some pretty mediocre speeds. However, if you have money to spend, there are better options out there, as you can read in our full Western Digital Elements review.

High capacity, low price. Slow, though.

Seagate makes some pretty slid external HDs, and the Portable is no exception. It offers plenty of storage at a very low price, but its slow transfer speeds may have you looking elsewhere. Check out our full Seagate Portable review for all the details.

A solid, low-cost alternative.

The Seagate Backup Plus Portable is a pricier alternative to the regular Seagate portable as it comes with some extra software and other goodies. However, some of that extra cost goes to looks alone, as you can read in our full review.

Cheap, but a bit flimsy and a bit slow.

The Toshiba Canvio Basics line is one of workhorses. They're a bit slow and can't be used for mass transfers, but they stick around forever and are pretty cheap, too. Check out our full Toshiba Canvio Basics review for the details.

A tough drive that's also pretty slow and pricey.

If you want a hard drive that can take a beating, the LaCie Rugged might seem a good buy. If you want a good external HD that works well, avoid this product. Read the why in our full LaCie Rugged review.
