Well, vignale said he bought a 1 TB at Carrefour, and you still insist that it's not true.

By the way, Seagate also offers 1 TB portable hard drives for US $ 140. Western Digital offers 2 - 1 TB in one case (2 TB) and they are portable and powered by USB. You can make a nice RAID system (Spanned or mirror and striped) with them.

what i am saying is that you people are thinking that 1 TB hard disk as portable but it is not

it is a very heavy one and requires a power outlet for it to function.

but the question is for a hard disk which is portable and is very small like a pocket diary

By shyampsunder2003• 7 Mar 2009 23:51
shyampsunder2003

i am sorry but that hard drive requires a power cable

SO IT AINT 2.5'

You are wrong. There is a 1 terabyte USB 2.0 2.5" portable hard disk at Carrefour, Villagio.

He wants a portable external hard disk

it is in 2 and a half inch size and DOESNT NEED AC POWER

the highest in portable hard disks are 500 gb

i would recommend western digital over imation

like others told, you can get it in carrefour.

Portable external hard drive or desktop external hard drive??? Those 2 will have big difference in price.
