Why using an external SSD makes my life so much easier
As external SSD's have seen skyrocketing capacity and increased portability, keeping one on me for offline file management has become a must.

A deep dive into my Amazon history shows that in 2011, I paid $50 for a 500GB external HDD, and in 2013, I paid $165 for a 250GB SATA internal SSD. Those prices, and far worse, were the era of storage costs that I grew up in, so suffice it to say that having a ton of storage space with me on the go was never something I adopted into my daily tech repertoire until recently.
