Having a backup drive is key to anyone with a laptop, but lugging around an extra hard drive can take the convenience out of portable computing. Plugging into the computer adds steps to the process of getting started with work, but one Macbook slot in particular — the SD card port — can be used to immediately expand its storage by 512 gigs. The way to do it is with a HyperDrive MacBook Storage Expander, and you can get one right now for $19.95.

HyperDrive expands the memory of any computer with MicroSD, MicroSDHC, or MicroSDXC slots, without any size or weight to your laptop bag. The plug-and-play drive inconspicuously hitches a ride while adding 128 gigs of storage for anything you want to hang on to — documents, movies, music, photos, even Time Machine backups. It’s designed specifically to match the sleek lines of a Macbook, and it’s fast too, supporting Class 10/UHS-I/U1/U3 transfers of up to 95MB/s.

Expand your Macbook’s capacity without adding to its weight or thinning your wallet, the HyperDrive MacBook Storage Expander is just $19.95 at Cult of Mac Deals.
