Apricorn Aegis PadlockPortable Hard Drive: A Little Space, Please – $189.00

As much as I adore my computer as her fourth-year approaches, she seems to have gotten a little, well, lethargic; I guess you could say. It’s not her fault, either, I’ve put her through quite a bit. I work on her just about every night, including weekends. I have loaded thousands upon thousands of photos of her (I’m practically a paparazzi at parties), so you really can’t blame her for taking things slow.

However, as much as I understand it, that doesn’t make it any easier for me to work with. So I branched out and purchased a hardware encrypted Apricorn drive, and it’s been quite the lifesaver. It was moderately cheap, gave me tons of extra room to load my photos and such so my computer goes faster!
