Looking to get a normal HDD. Very difficult to decide between

1) Seagate Backup Plus Slim
2) WD My Passport
3) Toshiba Canvio II
4) Transcend 25MC (C-USB)

Anyone has experiences to share with the above mentioned drives?

Not much variety nowadays as in the end not as many hdd makers as there used to be.

Might as well go with any brand that offers free data recovery if the hdd fails.

Any 2TB in which could get at $100?

WD my passport ultra 2TB @$119 (Maroon color only). They are clearing stock as this was old design. Function-wise is the same as the newer model ($139).
