Choosing the Right External Storage for Your Needs with Transcend

Written by Contributor

While storage capacity, portability, and price are key considerations when choosing an external storage drive, there are additional increasingly important factors to consider in determining the right external storage for you.

Thus, when it comes to deciding between a portable hard drive (HDD) or solid-state drive (SSD), it is important to first identify the criterion that best complements your workflow and specific needs. These can be broken down to the following key factors:

  • Pricing: HDDs offer larger capacity at more attractive prices.
  • Portability: SSDs can be smaller, thinner, and lighter than HDDs as SSDs have no moving parts.
  • Easier Data Recovery: SSDs store data in a less intuitive way. With HDDs, it can be easier to recover data.
  • Greater Protection: SSDs can survive harsher treatment because they have no moving parts that can break.
  • Energy Efficiency: SSDs don’t have to spin up a platter from a standstill, and thus consume less energy.

Transcend offers a comprehensive range of portable storage options that are designed to meet your specific needs and budget.
