Portable HD'd

By Bunnyhug

I have the following choice of products:

1) WD 1TG portable HD USB 3.0 & 2.0
2) Verbatim 1TG portable HD USB 3.0 & 2.0

Portable means no external power required.

Regardless of the price of each (similar), and it is too soon to assess the 3.0 capabilities of each, that aside, how does Verbatim v WD products rate?
Thanks

upset your mind set. I am not as computer savvy as you, obviously. I was merely differentiating between the HD's that require a power source, and those that don't, as far as my query was concerned.

Again, accept my humblest apologies.

Thank you everybody else for your sensible input, it has helped me decide.

My Verbatim failed after only a few weeks. Seems the HDD worked loose from the housing inside!
