I have a Segate 2tb drive that I use as a back up drive for time machine. Today is the third time the drive has failed or one of the partitions within the drive has (one of two partitions is not mounting). Knock on wood I have not needed any of the back up files from the drive.
The problem however is now that my picture and movie collection is growing my macbook can no longer hold all the pictures and movies. So I was going to store my pics on the external HD and have Aperture reference the pictures. However, with what seems like a very unreliable drive I have my doubts.
My question to you is what drive are you using? My budget is $230 which is close to double what I paid for the Segate but, if my pictures are gonna be on it better get a good one. I only have two requirements 1) USB 3.0 2) Be at least 200gb
I was thinking of:
