Need help in selecting EXTERNAL HARD DISK.

[berianmol]

Whats the best external hard disk in terms of speed and reliability, possibly not insanely expensive?
I am considering to buy 1TB.

 

1. Should be 3.0, thats obvious. 
2. Be of good brand, not some cheap.
3. Comes with 2 or 3 year warranty perhaps even more.

4. Should not be insanely expensive. 





Thanks guy.

WD My Book is pretty decent.

Should it be a 2.5 inch or 3.5 inch?

I am currently using a seagate Backup Plus which is pretty good.

WD My passport series is not bad. 1Tb costs about 80$USD and two-year warranty.

WD My Passport is pretty good. 1Tb is not that expensive. My brother and I have one each. It's pretty decent, Mine has been dropped, shaked and stuff and it still works like charm.

don't matter to me, but it should not have external power source.

don't matter to me, but it should not have external power source.

Then it has to be a 2.5 inch. In this case I will recommend the WD Passport series
