Hello guys!
I am looking for an external hard drive. I saw 2 potential ones at my local computer hardware store.
I am looking for a sturdy external hard drive with 1TB capacity. Size kind of matters cause I will bring it with me often. I will also share this hard drive with my girlfriend so it needs to be a bit physically appealing too. I dont mind buying a slower drive but only if it is only a few mbps slower than the other.
The first one is the Adata HV620 1TB. The dimensions are 4.5 x 3.1 x 0.6 in.
The second one is the WD My Passport Ultra 1TB. The dimensions are 4.34 x 3.21 x 0.5 in.
These are the reviews that I have read:

Based on reviews that I have read, the Adata one is faster than the WD one. Although I am not that sure because I didnt thoroughly understand the benchmarks. I am sort of leaning towards buying the WD because it is smaller and better looking and i believe it comes with a small pouch and a longer cable.
Both are around 90 dollars in the store that I was in. These two are the only options that I have.
Which should I purchase?
