Hello Everyone,
My boss needs an external storage device for our office. This device/drive will handle all the critical and secret data of our office so that it remains mobile and is always with the boss. To acheive this we need an external storage device solution on which we can save all our documents. The maximum storage space that we might need is 2GB.
I talked to my local computer vendor and he advised me that I should go for an internal hard disk enclosed in an external hard disk casing. He is saying that a 2GB pen drive will cost in excess of 2000 bucks while a setup that he is advising will cost me 3000 bucks at the max but it will provide me with approx. 80GB space.
Now, I need advice from you guys. What should we do? Our main requirements for this drive are:
1) Security and safety of the data (Utmost importance. We can't afford to lose the data)
2) Stability of the drive.
3) Easy usability. Since most of our office employees are not too tech-savvy we need something that is plug-n-play.
Please advise guys. I will be very thankful. Also, if you advice for drive casing, please inform me whether I can use SATA drives in such casings or not.
