| Bottom line | The Seagate BlackArmor PS 110 USB 3.0 is a well-designed external hard drive that is fast, portable, and future-proof. | 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. | Western Digital's My Book 3.0 is a great external-storage addition for desktop computer users. However, notebook users have better choices. | 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. |
