      Buy External Hard Disks online 


      Hard disk drive (HDD) is a data storage device that is used to store digital information by using the magnetic storage concept. External hard disks are devices that let you extend this storage capacity by using a convenient and handy external option so that you can easily carry all your important files and documents anywhere you want. Another advantage of having an external hard drive is that it lets you transfer all the files you want from one laptop/desktop to another easily. Although today's computers come with several gigabytes of storage space, one might still need some device that can store all the information he would like to access quickly and carry around with him. It is for this reason that we have portable hard disks in addition to the conventional desktop versions. Based on your requirement, you can buy 500 GB, 1 TB hard disks, 2 TB hard disks and up to 8TB hard disks. Check online on Flipkart for hard disk price of the one from your favourite brand and discover huge offers for the same. The price of the same ranges between Rs 3,000- Rs 30,000 on Flipkart. As far as the brands as concerned, you will find on Flipkart some of the best options like Seagate hard disk, WD (Western Digital), Sony, Transcend, HP hard disks and more.


      If you analyse the range of storage devices available in the market today, you will see that most of these latest external hard disks are designed with USB 3.0 ports that enable faster data transfer speeds than the previously common USB 2.0 ports. These hard drives may or may not require external power, so make sure you check the specification carefully before paying for one. The most commonly used specifications of the hard disk are 3.5 inch for desktop computers and 2.5 inches for laptops. One would require using a hard disk cable/ USB cable as an interface to connect the device to a laptop or desktop. These portable drives are pretty light and easy to carry around as well, for example, the Sony 1 TB external hard drive weighs 180 grams. It has a speed of 5 GB/s ensuring super-fast transfer rates. 

      Connectivity Features

      Some high-end hard disks also offer wireless connectivity to all types of computing devices - laptops, PCs, mobiles, and tablets - and eliminates the need for carrying extra wires for connectivity. Most drives act only as storage devices. However, there are many others that offer additional security features and automatic cloud storage facility that make it all the more easy to move files from the PC to the drive or to the cloud.

      So what are you waiting for? Listen to your processor, and help it work faster by clearing up the memory space with the help of an external hard disk. For the benefit of our customers, below is the description of Top 4 External Hard disks

      Difference between HDD & SSD

      It is purely based on your requirement that you will have to zero in on either of the two types of memory storage devices: HDD (Hard Disk Drive) and SSD (Solid State Drive). HDD is less costly than SSD, however, if you are particular about performance and fast bootup, then SSD is the way to go.


      The technology used to store data in both these types of drives in the reason behind the difference in performance of the two. In SSD, information is stored in microchips. A hard disk drive, on the other hand, uses mechanical moving parts with a read/write head to move around and read information from the right location on the disk. Owing to the lack of moving parts in the drive, SSDs draw lesser power compared to HDDs. The bootup time of SSDs is 10-13 seconds and that of HDDs is 30-40 seconds. The speed of SSDs are also higher compared to HDDs.
