You need to transfer a large amount of data from a desktop PC to a portable storage device to be accessed on different computers. What would you use to perform this task most efficiently?
An external hard drive is the best option because it offers high storage capacity and can be easily connected to multiple computers via a USB interface. The use of cloud storage would depend on internet speed which can be a limitation for large data transfers, while USB flash drives typically have lower storage capacity and CDs/DVDs not only have limited capacity but also are not commonly used in modern workflows for large data transfers.
