[QUOTE="Randy B. Singer, post: 1914798, member: 190607"] LOL! Patrick, that's a shill site for Amazon. That page's sole reason for existence is to get its author kickbacks from Amazon. You should have been tipped off immediately when you saw that their top choice was an external Seagate drive with no power supply, no cooling, running at only 5400 rpm, and SMR! This is one of the drives that Bombich specifically recommends AGAINST. Unless you know that a particular Web site has a long history of being reliable, you should assume that any site that you find with recommendations is a shill site. As far as my recommendations being SSD drives..again...read the TidBits article that I linked to. The cheapest drive isn't the best drive, and a cheap drive may end up being close to worthless when you really need it. [/QUOTE]
