| The Bottom Line | Even with the slightly low USB 3.0 performance, the GoFlex Ultra still makes an excellent portable external hard drive for people who need to expand their computer's storage. | The WD My Passport Portable makes an excellent portable drive for use with both desktop and laptop computers, at home or while on the road. | Seagate Backup Plus carries the flexibility of the GoFlex portable drive while adding performance and style to portable storage. The new drive makes an excellent buy. | The Silicon Power Armor A80 makes an excellent portable drive for travelers and home offices alike. | Versatile, good-looking, and fast enough for most applications, the Buffalo MiniStation Thunderbolt HD-PATU3 makes an excellent buy for those looking for a portable Thunderbolt storage device. | Basic specs |
