The correct name for a hard drive is a hard disk drive and it’s a storage device that’s commonly used in computers to store data such as images, music and videos. External hard drives are now very popular and they can be easily plugged into any computer using a high speed USB 2.0 cable. They allow you to free up space on your computer’s internal drive, allowing you to maintain a smooth and fast PC performance.

Portable hard drives are popular for people on the go and their smaller designs mean you can tuck them away in a pocket or a small bag. Most of these drives are small enough to be powered solely through the USB 2.0 cable and many have a rugged build quality to protect it in the toughest conditions.
