If you are a music lover and intend to be away from home for a spell or on vacation, do what I do and take a 100gb external hard drive with you. It will let you still be able to enjoy all of your favorite music and much more. I can even watch my videos and access any other important data that I need.
Compact in size and light in weight make them the ideal companion on those long hauls or simply relaxing while walking or lying on the beach.
The benefits of adding an external drive is twofold. Not only for travelling but really an essential to be able to backup all your treasured content.
If you have lost all your treasured content before, then you will understand the problem. If not, don’t let it happen. It’s not worth it and something that can be so easily avoided.
Watch The 100GB External Hard Drive Video
You can choose to watch the video which reviews the top five hard drives that I have selected or reads on and come back to watch the video.
My top 5 compared below.
Number 1.
Is the BUSLink L-100 External 100 GB Drive. Security has obviously been the top priority when this external drive was designed.
The Bus link Cipher Shield has a Bilateral Access Mode which is responsible for protecting your information. A pair of Cipher Keys are required to be authenticated before access can be obtained, via the Cipher Shield 6TB 256-bit encryption.
Certainly not for those wanting to simply backup some recent pop music. With a price of many 100’s of dollars, it is designed to backup more serious information.
But then, how serious do you take the info you have?
Number 2.
The Seagate 100GB Portable External Hard Drive is a more down to earth model, for those just wanting to backup everyday info. Although this could be just as important to the individual concerned, if it were to be lost.
Portability is a biggie with this model as it only weighs 1 pound. All your multimedia files can be slipped into a pocket, or a small bag during your travels.
A one-year warranty comes with the Seagate Model ST9100801U2-RK which is renewable.
