Hi there,
I am sure there have been a ton of these posts so apologise for another one!
I am soon to be getting a new iMac to replace my Mac Pro and trying to decide on the best external HDD to run along side it.
This is what I am after:
- Reliability - the most important thing, so seagate, WD etc
- Speed - I will be putting my RAW photography, design work, videos on the external HDD, so would need Firewire if possible.
- Size - I wont want a massive drive, something I can put in my laptop bag or photography bag would be idea
- Prize - dont really want to pay any more than £100 ish
- Space - looking for around 1.5TB
How does USB 3 work? does a 2010 iMac support USB 3?Whats the speed?
Thanks all
