Every time an external hard drive is posted "definitely worth the time to destroy the housing and hope the drive inside doesn't require me to make board level soldering connections, reroute power from my fans to my new hard drive, summon a demon from the depths of hell, divide by zero, and hopefully not burn my house down when it charges. Boy I'm definitely the smart one by saving $10 and only require 9 hours of my time"
That's one of its primary purposes.
These drives are thicker and won't fit in a laptop. Often they have soldered connections as well.

I've been using the WD My Passport line for years now. Is there a significant difference in quality between the two?

The 12tb is $180, double the price but more than double the storage

And double the size, and needs external power. Can't wait for USB-PD in these external drives.
