G Raid its a must have

I use this product specifically for video production, backup all files and for file transfer. Great quality and amount of space specially since HD videos are large files.

G-Tech 6TB External

Had difficulty reformatting for PC but I figured it out anyway. I like the options of using (either) SATA, USB, and Firewire 800, as this adds to it's versatility.
