We’re going to go out on a limb here and say that even if you’re one of the world’s biggest photo and video enthusiasts, we have a deal on an external hard drive that you will never outgrow. Amazon has just dropped a 44% off deal on the massive 20TB version of the Seagate Expansion desktop USB hard drive, making it very possibly the last $280 you ever spend on external storage.
How big is 20 terabytes? Enough to hold roughly 10 million photos or 10,000 hours of HD video. So, very possibly an entire lifetime of photos, home videos, and other files can be safely backed up to the Seagate Expansion HD, and then further protected by Seagate’s Rescue Data Recovery Services should disaster strike.
Drag, Drop, and Relax
The Seagate Expansion HD can be used as a pure drag-and-drop device, and can also be set as the destination for your laptop or desktop computer’s native backup program. (You’ll have to reformat it to work with Mac’s Time Machine app, but that’s an easy process.) It’s both Mac and PC compatible, and the file transfers move quickly and reliably via the USB 3.2 connection. It’ll take mere minutes for the Seagate Expansion HD to go from unboxing to actively backing up your most valuable files.
With a drive as enormous as the Seagate 20TB Expansion HD, you can use it for backups and also as an ideal device for saving space on your PC or laptop’s hard drive. When the built-in storage on a computer pushes maximum capacity, it can affect performance, and also leave you to deal with those annoying repeated “your hard drive is nearly full” popup messages. Offloading files to the Seagate 20TB Expansion HD is a permanent fix for that issue.
Safe From Disaster
Accidents will happen. So will fires, water damage, and any number of other natural or unnatural disasters that often doom digital files. Seagate has included its Rescue Data Recovery Services in the purchase price of the Expansion HD, so your backup is backed up by experts who specialize in restoring damaged drives or extracting files and data from damaged drives and copying them onto a new, accessible device.
This isn’t a pocket-sized hard drive, but it’s the perfect size for a desktop or workstation, and at just 6.9 x 1.4 x 4.8 inches and 2.59 pounds it is easily portable. But the main appeal to this Amazon deal for 44% off the Seagate Expansion External Hard Drive is pure size — 20 terabytes of it for just $280 while this deal is still active.
