I mainly get my content from private trackers and I want to invest in an external hard drive to put all of my movies and shows on. What external hard drive would you recommend with a decent upload rate? Should I consider an SSD?

I just recently got fed up with this stupid “WD MyCloud” box (AVOID) and stripped the drive out and put it in a $20 USB drive adapter, which works PERFECTLY.

This is the drive adapter: https://a.co/d/1BdB0Oa

So my recommendation is one of those plus whichever hard drive is priced right. There is a website that tracks hard drive prices in dollars per gigabyte, not sure of the address right now.
