External drives rather conflict with the ideal of hyper-portable laptops.

It's like attaching an anchor to a 13" Macbook or Air.

It's not ideal, but there's a happy enough compromise in USB-powered 2TB 2.5" external drives.

If that's the case, why not use a 1TB USB 3.0 flash drive? Cant get more "hyper-portable" than that.
