So 1 TB? And what causes EHD failure/defect?
It depends. I use EHD for my 3d work and a lot of data transfer cause stress on them. I have had 2 failed EHD after using about a year. Both western.
and honestly, if you are only scanning bills to share with CPA, large storage flash drive is safer and easier to carry with just enough storage size for your use. I think even 64gb flash can go long way for plain images.
So in your opinion, a flash drive over a EHD?
