Types of Storage Devices
With multiple storage options, selecting the right type can be challenging. Here’s a quick guide to help:
External Hard Drives
Reliable and cost-effective, external hard drives use spinning platters to store data, ideal for large file storage, backups, and expanding storage without upgrading internally.
Portable Solid State Drives
SSDs provide faster transfer speeds and durability using flash memory, making them perfect for quick file access and transfer, especially for mobile professionals and gamers.
Memory Cards
Compact and versatile, memory cards like SD and microSD expand storage for devices such as cameras, phones, and consoles, allowing for easy file transfer.

Frequently Asked Questions of External SSDs & Portable Hard Disks
What is the difference between an external SSD and a portable hard disk?
External SSDs are faster, more durable, and more compact than portable hard disks, but they are also more expensive. SSDs use flash memory for quick data access, while hard disks use spinning platters, which are more susceptible to damage.
How do I choose the right external SSD or portable hard disk for my needs?
Consider your storage needs, budget, and performance requirements. If you need fast transfer speeds for demanding tasks, an SSD is recommended. If you prioritise storage capacity and affordability, a portable hard disk is a good option.
Are all external SSDs and portable hard disks compatible with my devices?
Most external SSDs and portable hard disks use USB connections, making them compatible with a wide range of devices like laptops, desktops, gaming consoles, and even some smartphones. However, it's essential to check the specific connection type (e.g., USB-C, USB-A) and compatibility with your device's operating system.
Will using external storage enhance my device's performance?
Using an external SSD as your primary boot drive can significantly enhance your device's performance, especially for tasks involving large files and applications. However, using an external HDD may not provide a noticeable performance boost due to its slower read and write speeds.
Can external storage be used to run applications?
Yes, you can run applications from external storage, especially with an external SSD. However, running applications from an external HDD may result in slower performance.
Do external SSDs and portable hard disks come with a warranty?
Yes, at Gain City, all our external SSDs and portable hard disks come with an official manufacturer's warranty, typically valid for one year from the date of purchase.
