What's the best external HD out there?

[Tallboy13]

I have a 2011 macbook pro and would like to get an external HD to put music, movies, basically all my media stuff. There's a lot of drives out there, but I want a really good one. Any suggestions?

How do you want to connect it? USB 2.0, FW 800, Thunderbolt, WiFi, Ethernet...

USB would be fine

They all work, but I would go for a WD one. They are reliable. I have 3 of them and they have never failed on me. 🙂
