The HP Portable Hard Drive is an upgrade to the HP SimpleSave drive that was announced a few years ago. The new drive offers up to 1TB of storage space and supports USB 3.0. It, too, comes with the SimpleSave backup software that makes backing up a no-brainer for anybody. It's not perfect, however, as the performance, though quite fast with USB 3.0, was slow compared with others we've reviewed. The backup software is also limited in terms of features. Still, for its street price of around $90, the 1TB HP Portable Hard Drive is definitely worth the peace of mind. You can also find the 750GB and 500GB versions of the drive for around $85 and $80 respectively.
