External Hard Drive Under $180!

Hi guys! I have been researching a few options to run my sessions on an external hard drive that is under $180 and I have found these:

OWC Mercury On-The-Go Pro (500GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache)

OWC Mercury On-The-Go Pro Bus-Powered FireWire 800/400, USB 2.0, USB 3.0 and 2.5" SATA Portable Hard Drive & SSD Solution

Amazon.com: 500GB OWC Mercury On-The-Go Portable FW800&400/USB2 7200RPM Bus Powered: Computers & Accessories

I am just a bit skeptical because it is cheap compared to other hard drives with that much memory.

Will the On-The-Go Pro work just as well as other external hard drives?


Glyph PortaGig 50 (500GB 7200RPM)

Amazon.com: Customer Reviews: Glyph PortaGig 50 - 500GB - 7,200 rpm


What External Hard Drive do you think I should get?

My options are obviously not limited to these 2.

Please suggest if you feel like another drive is better or you have better experiences with them. As long as they are under $180!

I'm going to be picking up one of those Glyph ones pretty soon, so it goes without saying which one I'd have out of the two you mentioned.
