External Storage Buying Guide and FAQ
This External Storage range covers storage for your PC. Below are the common questions on choosing the right drive.
What type of storage do I need?
For speed, an M.2 NVMe SSD is best for Windows and games. For large, cheaper capacity, a hard drive suits backups and media. Many people use both: a fast SSD for the system and a large drive for everything else.
How much storage should I get?
1TB is a sensible baseline and 2TB is comfortable once you have several large games. Heavy media or video work points to 4TB, 8TB or more. Buy a little extra so you are not clearing space later.
Will this drive work with my setup?
Check the connection and form factor: M.2 NVMe drives plug into the motherboard, 2.5 inch SATA drives use a SATA cable, and external drives connect over USB. Match the drive to the slot or port you have free.
