Check prices$535.85Western Digital My Book 3.0 (2TB)
Reviewed on March 22, 2010 Western Digital's My Book 3.0 is a great external-storage addition for desktop computer users. However, notebook users have better choices. -
Check prices$189.95Iomega iConnect Wireless Data Station
Reviewed on March 4, 2010 The Iomega iConnect Wireless Data Station is a great device to quickly turn your USB external hard drives into a robust network storage solution. Its compact design and ease of use more than make up for its average throughput performance, which is fast enough for most casual file sharing and backup needs. -
Check prices$244.68Seagate BlackArmor PS 110
Reviewed on June 30, 2009 A sexy, slim design and backup software set make a compelling argument for the Seagate BlackArmor PS 110 external hard drive. We like the unique Try and Decide feature preloaded on the drive, and the throughput speed scores stomp the competition. Shoppers on a strict budget should look into the Fujitsu Handydrive for the best cost per gigabyte, but the BlackArmor PS 110 offers many extra features for just a few more dollars more. -
Pricing not availableSeagate BlackArmor PS 110 USB 3.0
Reviewed on February 5, 2010 The Seagate BlackArmor PS 110 USB 3.0 is a well-designed external hard drive that is fast, portable, and future-proof. -

Check prices$211.01Verbatim Acclaim USB Portable Hard Drive (1TB)
Reviewed on August 2, 2010 The 1TB Verbatim Acclaim portable hard drive may appear boring compared with flashier drives, but its sleek size, rapid transfer speeds, and generous seven-year warranty more than make up for its lack of fashion sense. The Acclaim's executive look will likely attract corporate professionals, but we highly recommend its versatility to anyone in need of a storage upgrade. -
Pricing not availableLaCie Minimus (1TB)
Reviewed on September 23, 2010 The LaCie Minimus is a good-looking and compact 3.5-inch external hard drive that would make a good addition to a desktop computer that already supports USB 3.0. -
Check prices$237.69Hitachi SimpleTough external hard drive (USB 2.0, 500GB)
Reviewed on September 30, 2009 The Hitachi SimpleTough is by far the most indestructible external hard drive we've tested, capable of surviving drops of up to 10 feet and up to one ton of pressure. With a built-in USB cable, two-tiered data security package, and an impressive three-year warranty, we have no issue recommending this external hard drive to shoppers looking for space and security. -
Check prices$129.99-$329.77Western Digital MyBook Premium Edition 500GB External Hard Drive

Reviewed on May 14, 2010 With its embossed cover and rainbow of colorful designs, the Samsung G2 Portable hard drive is a consumer-focused external hard drive that offers the most basic plug-and-play storage functionality. You don't get many extras, but impressive benchmark scores, a competitive cost-per-gigabyte, and a generous three-year warranty demonstrate its core competency and earn this drive our CNET recommendation. -
Check prices$123.46Toshiba USB 2.0 Portable External Hard Drive
Reviewed on July 7, 2008 The Toshiba USB 2.0 Portable Hard Drive is an attractive, lightweight drive with a decent price point for a drive of this capacity. Its size makes it great for travel, but the write speeds aren't up to par with other drives we've seen. We can't recommend it due to its lack of performance. -
