External hard drive advice please

wrote: I'm looking for another external drive or two. My usual source has both Seagate/Lacie and Western Digital. It looks like 1 or 2TB are the smallest ones these days. Price range is around $50 to $100 per terabyte. Lacie prices are double Seagate models of same capacity - is Lacie the better quality version of Seagate? Western Digital models are generally in same price range as Seagate. Or should I look at other brands? I'm willing to spend up to about $100/terabyte for greater reliability. All advice and recommendations gratefully received and carefully considered. Thank you, https://www.backblaze.com/blog/hard-...tats-for-2017/ No smaller models there, but Toshiba's looking good. It's luck really. If the drive doesn't go bad in the first 3 months or so it'll probably last for years. Slightly smaller drives https://www.backblaze.com/blog/hard-...rk-stats-2016/ Toshiba shines again ... And I just bought a Seagate.
