    If the DV6 series notebooks come with USB 3.0 or eSATA, then you could just get one of those notebooks and an external hard drive. The notebook would weigh less and you can access the data on multiple computers very easily.

    Thats just about what I do. My dv6 is equipped with a 160gig SSD. For additional storage, I use HP's 1TB USB 3.0 portable HDD. Connect that to one of the PC's available USB 3.0 ports and it makes for damn quick access to my files.
