Western Digital My Passport SSD 2TB USB 3.2 Gen2, USB-C Portable Storage

Over the past several years I have purchased more than several solid state drives (SSD). Over that same time I have noticed that the prices of SSDs have come down, and the reliability has improved. (I had some issues with some of the first drives I bought, but I am not certain what the causes were.) The 2 TB Western Digital SSD I most recently purchased works as expected, is stylish (for an SSD), and is a great media for backing up your files. I work off of a 1 TB SSD thumb drive on multiple my workstations, and back up my files at least once a week to another portable device. While this way of working is more flexible, and saves me from stressing over a hard drive crash, there is always the possibility that the portable media you are using could fail. Its nice to have the nearly 1 TB of files I have created over the years backed up on another device like my WD 2 TB SSD. My back up ritual is simple (copy and paste), and is relatively quick given the number and size of files that I back up. As the price of SSDs comes down, and the technology improves having an SSD as part of you tech equipment will become an even bigger value.
