Another popular option in the ranks of best external hard drives are the Western Digital My Passport range. These colourful and compact hard drives comes in 1TB-4TB sizes and have reliable data speeds too. They make a nice change from the parade of generic grey boxes too and add a little flair to your desk.

The Seagate hard drives mentioned earlier are excellent value for money. But you don't actually have to spend that much more to get 5TB of storage space. the 5TB Seagate Expansion is one of the most popular picks around and gets consistently high-scoring reviews from press and public alike. A real people's champ all-round and one of our favourite external hard drive deals.

Need something a lot bigger? Enter the WD My Book Duo 16TB external hard drive. The Duo of the title refers to the fact you can use RAID technology to split this into two drives and configure them manually. This is especially handy if you want to backup the drive's content on the same drive, so if one part fails, you'll still be able to recover the data. These excellent external desktop drives don't come cheap though, so take a look at our comparison chart to find the latest and cheapest prices available.
