I don't *need* portable, but I was hoping to use them for backups to reduce the number of power bricks laying about in the study. I think SSD is probably the only sane alternative. A fellow I know on a local Mac forum uses one as his main boot drive because its faster than the internal. and he uses the internal as the backup/clone. SSDs are getting cheaper now, so its not beyond the bounds of possibility to have a couple of 2TB drives for the backups and a 540 for the clone boot drive.

I didn't know WD bought out SanDisk.

Yeah, only found out because I was cruising the WD site looking at their NASes and there it was in small print at the bottom of a page. Cant remember which, though.
