Choosing the right add-ons depends on what model hard drive you have and then what your needs are, affordability, and reliability.These types of products are characterised by form factors, dimensions, and supported drives. Form factor is the size of the hard drive and how it connects to a computer. Some drives use different adapters, such as a USB cable, others might use SATA III cables.
