Portable Hard Drives: Size Is Key
It's not hard to predict: If you pick a portable hard drive that's too bulky to carry with you, you'll wind up leaving it at the office. Or at home, or in your hotel room, or in your rental car. A good rule of thumb is that if you wouldn't hesitate to slip a drive into your pocket, it's undoubtedly slim enough and sleek enough to ride shotgun in your laptop bag. Look for drive enclosure features such as rounded corners, beveled edges, and smooth surfaces. Be aware, though, that a glossy, dark finish may show fingerprints.
