Hello,
I’m currently considering buying an external hard drive for the sake of data storage and time machine use. I’m considering WD Passport Studio http://wdc.com/en/products/Products.asp?DriveID=783 as a Portable Hard drive or My Book Studio http://wdc.com/en/products/Products.asp?DriveID=756 in case I went to select external Hard drives. The Question here, is there any PERFORMANCE difference between external hard drives and portable ones? which is better to get and why?
Thanks in advance,
Rashid
