External Hard Drives for DJn?


Recommended Posts

Can anybody that DJs out on the regular recommend a solid external hard drive, ideally one that plays well with Traktor? I recently copped a 2012 MacBook Pro with a 512GB SSD and love it, however, I'll need more space for forthcoming gigs. Ultimately, I just want to keep core software and music on the SSD, then other tracks (ones I don't play on the regular) on the external. Considering building my own so I can control the quality of the parts. I've been researching this topic on various sites, but would really like to hear your input.

Samsung T5. I have the 500GB, but the 1TB has come down in price since a year ago.

 

I can't speak for TRAKOR, but the drive gets a lot of use for video editing purposes (more than it ever would in DJing).

 

I currently use it to store 1000's of foley and soundFX files. I do more READING to it than writing and it's the best.
