I need some external storage for old photos, documents, digital artwork & music/movie projects etc. I'd like to be able to access these files at anytime too, if I want to edit them or transfer them
I've only ever used USB sticks for this job before, but I've lost many files that way, I never realised they they were notoriously unreliable. I tried to research what to use on here but I keep seeing people saying things I really have no clue about & never heard of before (RAIDs?? Nas??), I feel that stuff is too complex for what I want. I don't think I'd need more than 1TB storage, but I do want a regular USB and a USB-c connection (I use my macbook as my main computer but I want to get a pc in the future, so the storage needs to be compatible with both). I'm looking to spend £60 or under
I'm thinking a ssd or hhd, but I'm not sure which is appropriate for my need? Can anyone advise me?
BTW I will be doubling up on storage! I use onedrive for my files too, but my Internet connection is insanely slow so backing up files on onedrive can take many hours for only a handful of files
