WD and Adata seem to be at the front, marketing wise. Not sure about reliability, since I don't have them. My main issue with external 2.5" harddisks is power issue. Peak current of 500mA USB2 and 900mA USB3 may not be enough. -- William --- Talk Mailing List [email protected] https://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk
