| Bottom line | The LaCie Minimus is a good-looking and compact 3.5-inch external hard drive that would make a good addition to a desktop computer that already supports USB 3.0. | Info unavailable | Western Digital's My Book 3.0 is a great external-storage addition for desktop computer users. However, notebook users have better choices. | 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. |
