Being able to bring your previous data with you and have it local is a true godsend at times. Storage might be cheap in laptops, but sometimes an external drive lets you share more with your other systems and with your friends far easier than the cloud would. And why settle for the middling speeds of a normal USB thumb drive?

Why not opt instead for a fast SSD with an actual SSD controller that's able to saturate the entire USB 3.0 interface. And why would you not want native encryption either, with very little performance decrease from using it.
