My old external is not SSD and I fear losing everything on it and having to my start my collection over

What you got and how long has it lasted?

Exactly how I felt about my old laptop.

I swapped out my old MacBook drive with a Samsung SSD about four years ago. It's still going strong. The SSD increased performance so much that my 12yo laptop doesn't need replacing.

I use Bestbuy because I want to be sure I get a new product.

And, because you put them on the network, I can also stream them to mine.

I have at 2 SSD drives and 1 old HDD external drive for backups and to move around between my devices. Best part when I unplug them they are not connected to the internet.

My experience with NAS drives is they are sometimes a bitch to get working across your network. I used a WD NAS for years and it was unreliable as a network drive. Sometimes I could access it and sometimes it was a bitch.

Then I get this e-mail from WD that and NAS owner of a certain model needs to check it because WD found out they were being hacked and all info lost. I hadn't been on mine for a few months and sure enough all my data was gone. Luckily I'm not stupid and have other backups of that data. I will never buy anther NAS type drive because of this.


BTW I took my old NAS drive apart, ditched the NAS circuit board and formatted the 2TB HDD then bought a HDD/USB adaptor and now it is permanently connected to my smart TV via USB with all my movies and videos on it. Works great and again not connected directly to the internet.

I use these https://smile.amazon.com/Netac-Exter...97&sr=8-4&th=1
We used them at work to transfer data or back up one drive as people were retiring or changing positions. Fast and reliable.

Turns out that I have a SSD hard drive I forgot about. It is only a 160 GB drive. I guess I did not want to spend another 10 or so bucks for a bigger one.

5 & 4 TB are HDD, not SSD
