Portable hard disks on the cheap
Monday, April 3rd, 2006 | Hard Drive Reviews, News
One alternative is to get a portable hard drive. This is basically a hard drive built inside and enclosure that than just needs power and to be connected by USB or Firewire to a computer.
But still the problem remains. With the much higher cost of small portable drives, what do you do if you need to transport a LOT of information at the same time, but don’t want to dish out the immense amount of money needed for a 4GB flash drive.
Portable hard disks have been expensive, but there is now another option possible for those looking to get the size without the cost. The answer is hard drive enclosures. You can just get the case that you put your hard drive into and it will immediately become a massive store of data for you to use.
Setting it up is easy, just open it up connect the power plug and the IDE plug to the drive, close it up and away you go.
I would highly recommend this solution for anyone who needs to transport lots of information. If the drive you have inside is too small, the cost of upgrading the drive is not nearly as much as a memory stick upgrade.
