Graphic Artist or Photographer

Have your massive art files or high-resolution photographs begun to clog up your hard drive? If so, you need a super-fast, high capacity hard drive! Look for hard drives with a capacity of 100GB or more with transfer rates of at least 400 MBps. Also, if you're working on a Mac, be sure to shop for Mac-compatible drives.
