I mainly get my content from private trackers and I want to invest in an external hard drive to put all of my movies and shows on. What external hard drive would you recommend with a decent upload rate? Should I consider an SSD?

buy a bare hard drive with a very long warranty period and buy a separate enclosure and just put it in the enclosure. the only exception I ever made to this rule was those WD black hard drives that come in an enclosure, since I have bought a number of bare WD black hard drives and never had one fail.
