Hard time deciding, SSD or reg HD! G-Tech, Seagate, WD, or others? Want to keep photos off of Mac HD & use only external for photos only... looking @2T - 4T... You folks are the experts!
Thanks,

SSD would be nice but 2-4 TB will cost a bundle. San Disk and Samsung are close to $700 each for 2 TB drives and only have 3 year warranty's. A lot of 4 TB mechanical drives are $99 to $110 with a 3 year warranty for portable (small) HDs.
If you're familiar with drive enclosures, you could put a WD Black 4 TB drive in one. It would not be portable size, but it would have a 5 year warranty.
I have good luck with Western Digital.
