Hello!

I’m not a big computer or data storage guy so i’m looking for some advice here.

I’m looking to get an external hard drive that can be used for general back up of personal items on my Mac. I’m mostly going to be backing up LogicPro Session files. But would also like to use it for photos, adobe sessions, school work back up, ect.

I’m curious if I should get a HHD or and SSD? I know they both of their pro’s and cons. But if you had to recommend one or the other for general storage which would you pick?

I’d been thinking about getting a LaCie external drive, since I see that its the drive of choice for a lot of music producers.

Any advice is greatly appreciated!
