Because we live in a computer world it is important to have the best external hard drive to store our files in. This includes both those that are simple texts, and those that involve heavy files like pdf, pictures and movies.

We don’t even need television and DVD players anymore as long as we have the best external hard drive and I would like to help you in that endeavor by presenting what the experts believe are the best in the market and other reviews.

The top external hard drives according to PC world are: LaCie 2big Quadra 2TB, Verbatim Quad-interface Professional Hard Drive and Wiebe Tech RTX400 QR. The LaCie got 4.5 stars out of a possible 5 for best external hard drive by PC World because of its sturdy physique and the availability of multiple interfaces. It has a 2,000 GB capacity with a bundled software that include Genie Backup Manager Pro for Windows Software and Intego Backup Manager Pro for Mac Computers. In other words, it’s versatile. Verbatim also has universal compatibility but only has a capacity to store files of up to 1,000 GB. It’s software is the Nero BackItUp Essentials.

The Wiebe’s only fault was that it was big, bulky, and heavy. This data drive is great for those that don’t plan on moving their external data drive from place to place on a regular basis. Fortunately, this hard drive has a storage capability of 4TB which completely blows away its competition. It also has some nice data backup software included.

CNET also made its own reviews that had two Seagate products at the top of the line. But I will only put on one in the list and that is the Seagate GoFlex Satellite, considered the best external data drive because it looks good, which means it is easy on the eyes if you put this at home; and at the same time, compact. It can stream digital content. Unfortunately, it can only take in three wireless clients at a time. For home use, this is quite okay. Ipad lovers will make great use of this device.

Another positively reviewed device was the Plextor. I personally prefer the Seagate, but this machine does have its advantages. It complements more with the laptop but is considered quite expensive for its kind. You’ll find that Samsung has come out with a decent external data drive. This data drive has a small foot print that people can take advantage of while on the go. The only drawback to this machine is that it is the highest priced of all the machines reviewed in this article, but many feel it is the best external hard drive you can buy.
