External drives are often referred to as portable hard drives, and “Back Up Drives”.  If you are using the external drive as a back up then your data should be in two places. If your data files are just on the external drive, then the external drive is a data drive. External drives when used and stored properly are an economical way to protect your critical data. The most common cause of failure for external hard drive is dropping them on the floor. The USB cable attaching the drive to computer gets snagged, and the drive sitting on the desk, the kitchen table, the coffee table, the couch, etc drops to the floor.
