This external HDD connects via USB 3.0, providing faster data transfer speeds compared to older USB standards, and is conveniently USB-powered, eliminating the need for an external power adapter. Its black finish and portable design make it a practical choice for users needing additional storage on the go, compatible with various devices.
Our take
This HP p2050 portable hard drive is a straightforward option for expanding your storage. The 500GB capacity is suitable for backing up documents, photos, and some videos, making it a good choice for everyday users. I appreciate the USB 3.0 connectivity, which ensures quicker file transfers, and the fact that it's USB-powered is a definite plus for portability – no extra cables to carry. While it's listed as a "Portable External SSD," the drive type supported is HDD, so expect traditional hard drive speeds, not SSD performance.
